Finntroll - Trollvisan

Artist: Finntroll
Song: Trollvisan
Album: Ur Jordens Djup
Release: 2007

Trollet satt på sten och ropade; HEJ!
Vem har spillt mitt mjöd ut?
Men inget djur i skogen eller grottans djup
Visste vem som hade vällt ut skogstrollets sup

Trollet satt på sten och ropade; HEJ!
Vem har trampat mina svampar ner?
Men inget djur i skogen eller kära himlens barn
Visste vem som hade stampat hela fältet bart

Trollet satt på sten och ropade; HEJ!
Mjöd och fläsk till de vise!
Inget djur i skogen eller grottetrollets barn.
Som visste att det var enda trollet hade kvar

Och råttorna svamlade till trollet;
De kristna har spillt ditt mjöd!
De kristna har trampat dina svampar!
De kristna ha slagit dina bröder!

Sen blev trollet ilsken och steg upp från sin sten
Han gick till kristna landet och brände fula kyrkan ner

[English translation:]

Farce Of The Troll

The troll was sitting on his stone and shouted; HEY!
Who has spilled my mead?
But no animal in the forest or the deep caves
Knew who had spilled the forest troll's drink

The troll was sitting on his stone and shouted; HEY!
Who has trampled my mushrooms?
But no animal in the forest or children of the sky
Knew who had trampled the whole field

The troll was sitting on his stone and shouted; HEY!
Mead and pork to the wise ones!
No animals in the forest or the cave troll's children
Knew that it was the only thing the troll had left

And the rats told the troll;
The Christians have spilled your mead!
The Christians have trampled your mushrooms!
The Christians have beaten your brothers!

Then the troll got mad and left his stone
He went to the Christian land and burned the ugly church down

Finntroll come from Finnland. In Finnland both finnish and swedish are spoken languages. Finntroll speak finnish (and I guess sometimes swedish too), but their songs are swedish only.

That's why you can hear finnish before and after the song. ;)

(English is not my mother tongue, so I'm sorry, if it's not the best...)

@NFMCGorsa Here in Finland we also say soup (actually it's "keitto/liemi" in Finnish).

[Moriaz]

Är det bara jag som tycker att det låter som snubben säger "cock smoker" vid 0:10? :P

[DZFMM]

what do they say at the beginning? sounds like "nokia, cocksmoker"

[NRiv91]

I'm a little bit curious, what do they say at the beginning and at the end of the song?
