Translation of the song lyrics Perpålsa - Lumsk

Perpålsa (original)

Perpålsa tussen budde i en stein
I Nordland, i Nordland
Å han Svensk-Henrik var på flukt på sine bein
Han sprang frå lensmannen i dalen
Svensk-Henrik sprang, og han sprang
I Nordland, i Nordland
Og lensmannen kom likke bak med tvang
Han klare aldri sleppe unna
Langt borte såg han noko han trudde
I Nordland, i Nordland
Steinen der han Perpålsa budde
Og pusten frå lensmannen va like bak
Han kasta seg bak stein han måtte sjå
I Nordland, i Nordland
Han dundra og banka febrilsk og kraftig på
Han Perpålsa var heldigvis heime
Døre opna seg litt på gløtt
I Nordland
Han Svensk-Henrik smatt inn
No ska eg sov søtt
-Det var ein tussestein!

Perpålsa (translation)

Perpålsa between budde i en stein
In Nordland, in Nordland
Oh he Swedish-Henrik was on the run on his feet
He ran from the sheriff in the valley
Swedish-Henrik ran, and he ran
In Nordland, in Nordland
And the sheriff did not come back by force
He never managed to escape
Far away he saw something he thought
In Nordland, in Nordland
The stone where he bid Perpålsa
And the sheriff's breath was just behind
He threw himself behind a rock he had to see
In Nordland, in Nordland
He thundered and knocked feverishly and violently
He Perpålsa was fortunately home
Doors opened a little ajar
In Nordland
He Swedish-Henrik slipped in
Now I'm going to sleep sweet
-It was a tussle!
