Två Systrar [English translation]
Två Systrar [English translation]
Oh, sister and sister discussed their alternatives
Young is my life
Come, towards the seashore we'll go
Thou are calling me with that tongue
The youngest was white as a sun
The eldest was black as god's holy soil
The younger went first with her hair let down
The eldest went after with false advice
When they came to the seashore
The eldest pushed the youngest from shore
Oh beloved Sister help me from distress
Thou shall I give my red golden crown
Thou red golden crown I do not fit
Though never on god's green earth shalt you walk
Oh beloved Sister help me ashore
Thou shalt I give my red golden bracelet
Oh sweet Sister help me ashore
Thou shalt I give my fiancé
Thou fiancé I will have anyway
Though never on god's green earth shalt you walk
Fare now well my Father
I shall drink my wedding in the sea
Oh fare now well my Mother
I shall drink my wedding in the flow
Fare now well my Sister
Now I drink more than I luster
The fishermen fish in the blue night
They found the damsel in the billow so blue
They took her snow white body
They took her up from the billow
They took her snow white breast
Made thereof a harp's voice
They took her golden yellow hair
They made harp strings thereof
The first pluck on the Golden Harp sound
Then she said what the damsel sang
The second pluck on the Golden Harp sound
Thou are calling me with that tongue
My sister is damned
