Haavard Hedde Lyrics

Eg heitar Haavard Hedde
og er sa vein ein kar
Na vil eg bort a gifta meg
og rydja meg en gard

Eg bur oppunder fjell
og jenta hev eg lova
Eg sveik ho ikkje hell

Eg heitar Haavard Hedde
Og bur oppunder nut
Na vil eg bort a gifta meg

Eg bur oppunder fjell
og jenta hev eg lova
Eg sveik ho ikkje hell

Ja, garden den er liten
Men skogen, den er god
Der heve eg to furer
og dei skal sta i ro

Nar borna dei vert mange
og skuldi aukar pa
Sa hugg eg ned den eine
Den andre ho lyt sta

Men nar me verte gamle
og kvar skal ha til sitt
Sa hogg eg ned den andre
og da er skogen kvitt

English translate: Haavard Hedde

My name us Haavard Hedde
And am so handsome a guy Now I want to go and get married
And clear a place for a farm

I live up-under mountains
And the girl I have pledged myself to
I didn't let her down either

My name is Haavard Hedde
And live up-under peak
Now I want to go and get married

I live below mountains
And the girl I have pledged myself to
I didn't let her down either

Yes, the farm it is small
But the forest, it is good
There I have two pines
And they shall stand in peace

When the children become many
and I owe more and more money
Then I chop one down
The second can be for now

But when we become old
and each shall have it's own
Then I chop the second down
And the forest is gone
