Det bur eit bergtroll uti Fosen eit sted
hans namn kjenne ingen, han er nye med det
han var s forelska i ei fager my
"eg sei ho ikkje namnet mitt, for da kan eg dr"
Hei - hei huskom - i - hei
snart tek eg brura i min famn
hei - hei huskom - i - hei
Han tok den fagre mya inn i Fosenhula si
der skull dei bu til saman til evig tid
men jenta var srgmodig ho gret og var s lei
mens Bergetrollet laga i stand bryllaupsfest for dei
Hei - hei huskom - i - hei
snart tek eg brura i min famn
hei - hei huskom - i - hei
Den kvelden i fr bryllaupsfest han var i godt humr
han drakk og han sang som ein brudgom kan gjr
i manga dagar hadde jenta prvd lokke fram
sin brudgoms namn men tenk det hjelpte ei med dram
Hei - hei huskom - i - hei
snart tek han brura i sin famn
hei - hei huskom - i - hei
Som natta gjekk og meir han fekk
ho sg sin muligheit
kom kjre ven eg luskar deg du er mi kjrlighet
Kom legg ditt hovud i mitt fang
eg for deg syngja vil
han blei s glad han reiste seg og vart ein smule vill
Han dansa rundt og rundt og rundt
og pluteseleg han sang
ein sang det skulle visa seg han sang for siste gang
Hei - hei dunkeromdei
Han fekk ikkje brura i sin famn
Hei - hei dunkeromdei
[English translation:]
Dunker
There lives a mountain-troll somewhere in Fosen
Nobody knows his name, he is careful with it
He was so in love with a maiden fair
"I won't say her my name because I could die"
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
Soon I'll have the bride in my embrace
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
He brought the fair maid inside his hollow in Fosen
There should they live together for eternity
But the girl was full of sorrow, she cried and was so sad
While the mountain-troll prepared the wedding for them
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
Soon I'll have the bride in my embrace
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
The night before the wedding, he was in a great mood.
He drank and he sang like a groom can do
For many days the girl had tried to disclose
Her grooms name, but even snifter didn't help
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
Soon I'll have the bride in my embrace
Hei hei huskom - i - hei
As night passed and he got more
She saw a way
"Come dear friend I`ll stroke your hair, you are my love
Come lay your head in my lap
I will sing for you"
He was so glad he got up and lost his self-control
He danced round and round and round
And suddenly he sang
A song that would prove to be the last he sang
Hei - hei dunkeromdei
He got no bride in his embrace
Hei - hei dunkeromdei
