Lyrics:
[The Ballad of Per Tysson's daughters in Vänge] [Lyrics: Tradititional, Translation: Mathias Blad] Per Tyrsson's daughters in Vänge Oh how chilly their woods They were fast asleep a long time ago Whilst the woods burst into leaf The youngest was the first one to awake She soon awoke the others They sat themselves down upon their beds And plaited the hair on each other's heads Then they dressed in clothes of silk And made their way to church When they came to Vänga hill They met three robbers who held them still "Pray, would you care to become robbers' wives? Or would you rather lose your lives? " "We would not care to become robbers' wives. We would much rather lose our lives. " They chopped their heads off on birch-wood stem And soon three wells sprung forth by them The bodies were dug down in muddy ground, The clothes they carried to Vänga town. As they arrived in Vänga farm Fru Karin came to greet them. "Say, would you care to buy clothes of silk That nine maidens have knitted and crotcheted? " "Open your bundles and let me see Maybe I know them, all three. " Fru Karin quivers as never before And runs to Per Tyrsson who stands by the door "There are three robbers outside our farm They've gotten rid of our daughters" Per Tyrsson grabs his sword and then He runs to slay the two older men. He asked the third one before he stroke "Who is your father and mother?" "Our father Per Tyrsson in Vänge, Our mother Fru Karin in Skränge. " Per Tyrsson went to the smithy And forged himself iron round his waist. "What shall our retribution be?" "We'll build a church out of stone and lime." "Kärna Church shall be it's name" Oh how chilly their woods "Oh, how willingly we will build it ." Whilst the woods burst into leaf [Per Tyrssons Döttrar I Vänge] [Lyrics: Tradititional: Swedish Version] Per Tyrssons döttrar I Vänge. Kaller var deras skog. De sovo en sömn föare länge. Medan skogen han lövas. Först vaknad den yngsta, Sa väckte hon upp de andra Sa satte de sig pa sängestock Sa flätade de varandras lock Sa togo de pa sina silkesklar Sa gingo de sig at kyrkan Nar som de kommo pa Vänga lid Däare mötte de tre vallare "Säg viljen I bli vallareviv Eller viljen I mistra era unga liv? " "Ej vilja vi blie vallareviv Hellre vi miste vart unga liv. " De högg deras huvu'n pa björkestock, Sa rann däare strax tre källor opp Kropparna grovo de ner I dy, Kläderna buro de fram till by Näare som de kommo till Vänga gard Ute föare dom fru Karin star "Och viljen I köpa silkessörkar, Som nio jungfrur har stickat och virkat? " "Lös upp edra knyten och lat mig se, Kanhända jag känner dem alla tre. " Fru Karin sig föare bröstet slar Och upp till Per Tyrsson I porten hon gar. Dethaller tre vallare pa var gard De haver gjort av med döttrarna var. " Per Tyrsson tar sitt svärd I hand Sa högg han ihjäl de äldsta tva Den tredje fraga han innan han slog: "Vad heter er fader och mor?" "Var fader Per Tyrsson ivänge, Var moder fru Karin I Skränge. " Per Tyrsson han gar sig at smedjan, Han lät smida sig järn om midjan "Vad ska vi nu göra för syndamen?" "Vi ska bygga upp en kyrka av kalk och sten!" "Den kyrkan ska heta Kräna." Kaller var deras skog "Den ska vi bygga upp sa gärna" Medan skogen han lövas
