Lyrics of Duttens vise - Lumsk

Duttens vise (original)

I Kvldingen kom hun og bad om Ly Den brune husvilde Pige.
Hun var saa stille, hun var saa sky,
Men gal som den unge Kvige.
Og ikke saa kom du til Fyrstens Slot,
Et Kot er mit hele Rige.
Men del mit Leje og varm dig blot
Og vr velkommen, min Pige.
Om Morgenen kldte den Pige sig paa
Og bad mig Levvel tillige.
Men der hvor hun stod blev hun vet at staa
Og vilde slet ikke vige.
Da frte jeg hende til yderste Port
Og ud af mit hele Rige.
Da frte jeg kanske min Lykke bort —
Jeg kan ikke mere sige.

(translation)

In Kvldingen she came and asked for shelter The brown homeless girl.
She was so quiet, she was so shy,
But crazy as the young Heifer.
And not so did you come to the Prince's Castle,
A kot is my whole realm.
But share my Rent and just warm up
And welcome, my Girl.
In the morning the girl got dressed
And Levvel asked me too.
But where she stood she knew how to stand
And would not give up at all.
Then I led her to the outer gate
And out of my whole Kingdom.
Then maybe I carried away my Happiness -
I can say no more.
