Translation of the song lyrics Konning Hans - Týr

Konning Hans (original)

Konning hans han sidder på København
Han lader de lønnebrev skrive
Sender han dem til nørrejylland
Erik Ottesøn lover at give
Der kommer aldrig saa rig en dronning til Dannemark
Du bede godt for de fattige enker
Som faderløse børn skulle føde
Du bede godt for de fattige fanger
Lad dem i tårnet ej dø
Der kommer aldrig saa rig en dronning til Dannemark
Ok skatte du ikke den fattige bonde
Jeg det ikke have vil
Men fattes dig enten guld eller sølv
Du sige din fader til
Der kommer aldrig saa rig en dronning til Dannemark

(translation)

His king is sitting in Copenhagen
He lets the paycheck write
He sends them to northern Jutland
Erik Ottesøn promises to give
Never so rich a queen comes to Denmark
You pray well for the poor widows
As fatherless children were to give birth
You pray well for the poor prisoners
Do not let them in the tower die
Never so rich a queen comes to Denmark
Ok you do not treasure the poor farmer
I do not want it
But you lack either gold or silver
You tell your father to
Never so rich a queen comes to Denmark
