"Hvørt skal tú riğa, Ólavur mín
á lofti hongur brynja tín

Tú fer ikki at veiğa tağ hind
men tú fer til tína leikalind

Hvit er skjúrtan, væl er hon tvigin
í blóği verğur hon av tær drigin"

Ólavur snúğist síni móğur frá
"Gud gevi ikki ganga sum mær er spáad"

Ungir kallar, kátir kallar, gangiğ upp á gólv
dansiğ lystilig

Ólavur ríğur eftir bjørgunum fram
-kol og smiğur viğ
fann hann upp á eitt álvarann

Út kom eitt tağ álvafljóğ
flættağ hár á herğar dró

"Ver vælkomin Ólavur Riddararós
tú gakk í dans og kvøğ fyri oss"

"Tú tarvt ikki flætta títt hár fyri meg
eg eri ikki komin at biğja teg

Eg kann ikki meira hjá álvum vera
í morgin lati eg mítt brúdleyp gera"

"Hvat heldur vilt tú sjey vetur liggja á strá
ella vilt tú í morgin til moldar gá"

Hon skonti honum í drykkjuhorn
har fór í tağ eiturkorn

Ólavur studdist viğ sağilboga
-kol og smiğur viğ
hann kysti tá moy av lítlum huga

Ungir kallar, kátir kallar, gangiğ upp á gólv
dansiğ lystilig

[Translation:]

Olaf Knightrose

"Where are you going, Olaf
your armour hangs in the attic

You are not going to hunt for deer
you are going to your mistress

White is your shirt, well has it been washed
It will be taken of you in blood"

Olav turned away from his mother
"God grant that it does not go as it has been
foretold"

Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily

Olaf rides along the mountains
-with coal and smith
He came upon an elven house

Out came an elven maiden
Plaided hair on shoulders lay

"Be welcome Olaf Knightrose
come to the dance and sing for us"

"You need not plaid your hair for me
I have not come to ask for you

I can no longer stay with the elves
for tomorrow I will wed"

"What would you rather, lie ill for seven winters
or be buried tomorrow"

She filled him a drinkinghorn
in it went a grain of poison

Olaf leaned on the saddlebow
-with coal and smith
as he reluctantly kissed the maiden

Young lads, happy lads, step up on the floor
dance merrily
