En kungens man [English translation]

Maria walks on the road

Which leads to the city.

She sings and she laughs

At the larks in the sky.

She is on her way to the town square

To sell a little bread,

And the sun is rising warmest then,

And colors the sky red.

Then she meets a nobleman

And a horse with a bushy mane,

He says: " I am the kings man

So I take what I want to have.

And you are too beauiful

Not to have a man;

Follow me into the woods

I will show you what I can."

She is forced down into the grass,

And he touches her body.

She gets away and begs him

For God's sake stop.

But the knight only laughs

Intoxicated by his own ardour

So she takes his knife and stabs him

And the knight is dead.

They imprisoned Maria,

And she was stoned to death for homicide.

But the memory of the knight

It was celebrated every year.

Yes, the noblemen become heroes,

But the people are condemned.

And we who see how everything should go

We learn that we dreamed,
