(From Weiskollm)
Translated by Ed Bernthal

The young nobleman wanted to know,
The young nobleman wanted to know,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
What it is like in foreign places.

He had a carriage built for himself,
He had a carriage built for himself,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Four brown horses he hitched to it.

He let himself be taken through a land,
He let himself be taken through a land,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Where people were enslaved.

They hitched the youth to a plow,
They hitched the youth to a plow,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
To a very heavy plow.

His girl found out about this,
His girl found out about this,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
His most highly loved one.

She had a carriage made for herself,
She had a carriage made for herself,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Four brown horses she hitched to it.

She let herself be taken to the land,
She let herself be taken to the land,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Where people were enslaved.

‘Unhitch my most beloved one,
Unhitch my most beloved one,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
From this very heavy plow.’

“If you can dance very daintly,
If you can dance very daintly,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Can you step up very proudly?”

The maiden danced very daintly,
The maiden danced very daintly,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
And stepped up very proudly.

The loved was unhitched from the plow,
The loved was unhitched from the plow,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
From the very heavy plow.

“Thank you, thank you, maiden,
Thank you, thank you, maiden,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
For having freed me”.

“Up to now you were my fine loved one,
Up to now you were my fine loved one,
Haj domdiderag, Haj domdiderag,
Now you shall be my wife!”
