De ventede Tsens Hiemkomst
Hun vaer i mrck Skog faren vild
Sneens Tepper hafde bredet sig hen
Paa Stien hiem - hendes eeneste Ven
Om hun bare kunde
Flge Stiernernes Baner
Ey hun skulde vildfare
Blandt disse mrcke Graner
Skogens mrcke Arme forbarmede sig ofver dend fremmede Gist
Giorde hende vaer i siine inderste Tankers Veemod
At i Bergekongens Kammer trstes efter Christenblod
[De Underjordiske:]
Det nrmer sig stille: Een srgeklst Pige
Sidder derinde med foldede Hnder
Hun sender een Bn til det himmeldske Rige
Ofver hendes Hode
Det drybber fra Qviist
Draabe for Draabe som Blodet
Fra Kroppen til Jesu Christ
[Pigen:]
Aa, eismal i ein uggin Skog
Eg kjenn at i Kveld
I Kveld tenkjer ingen paa meg
[English translation:]
Led Astray In The Troll Forest
They awaited the maiden's homecoming
But she was led astray in the dark forest
The snows carpet had broadened itself
On the homeward path - her only friend
O could She but
Follow the starry trails
She would not be lost
Among these dark spruces
The forest's dark arms embraced the foreign guest
Made her sad in her inner thoughts
The halls of the Mountain King thirsted for Christian blood
[The Underground People:]
"Its approaching silent; a maid in grief
Sits down there with hands joined in prayer
She sends a plea to the Kingdom of Heaven"
Upon her head
From twigs its dripping
Drop by drop as the blood
(From the body) of Jesus Christ
[The Maiden:]
"Alas! Alone in a fearsome forest
I feel that tonight
Tonight no one thinks about me."
