Lyric By Boto
All'alba, prima che il sole sorgesse
e gli uccelli cantassero la loro dolce canzone
La donna del troll della montagna con lingua falsa
ed ingannevole propose al signore:
Herr Mannelig, Herr Mannelig mi vorrai sposare
Per tutto quello che io dolcemente ti darè?
Se vorrai, rispondi solo si o no
Farai così o no?
Ti darò i dodici mulini
che stanno tra Tillo e Terno
le macine sono fatte del più rosso rame
e le ruote sono cariche d'argento
Herr Mannelig, Herr Mannelig mi vorrai sposare
per tutto quello che io dolcemente ti darè?
Se vorrai, rispondi solo si o no
Farai così o no?
Se tu fossi una donna cristiana
riceverei volentieri regali così,
ma io so che sei il peggiore troll della montagna
figlio degli spiriti maligni e del demonio.
Herr Mannelig, Herr Mannelig mi vorrai sposare
per tutto quello che io dolcemente ti darè?
Se vorrai, rispondi solo si o no
Farai così o no?
