It's from Denmark and is written in Old Danish. The meaning of the words is not clear. The song text is:

Drømde mik en drøm i nat
um silki ok ærlik pæl

It is part of the Codex Runicus, which was primarily about law. The fact that the music was in a book of law makes translating it somewhat difficult.

Some scholars translate it as:

I dreamt a dream last night
of silk and fine fur

While other scholars surmise:

"tonight I had a dream about justice and fair play" or "today I had a dream about equality and honest measure"
