Valivan

Melody - Melody II - Ludvig Mathias Lindeman, 1812-1887

From Seljord, Telemark

(I)
Dær bur naa ei Jomfru hær up pi vor Bye
Dæ kje anna Gulle som ho mone sye

Refreng:
Men Valivan seilar aarlæg.
 
There's a maiden in our village
There's no cloth which she could not sew

Refrain:
But Valivan sails at dawn.

(II)
Der bur ei Gjente her up i By,
d'æ inkje anna Gulle dæ ho monne sy;
Valivan seilar aarleg.
(I) Transcription from 1840 by Olea Croeger (made in ciffer notes) after singer Ole Glosimoth, Telemark.
