Morsian [English translation]

For sixteen years I have

Been in love passionately

And I haven't slept

I have dreamed of your bosom

I have to beat the others

My rival in my Sunday suit

I will come right away in the morning

I will ask your father for you hand

Because I have thought a little bit,

Thought of you in autumn storms,

Dreamed of you on spring snow

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

Now some time has passed already

I have built us a home

Everything is ready

I have grown you birch trees1

When you are free again

I'll come to get you in my Sunday suit right away

You will get this ring

It has been in my pocket all my life

Because I have thought a little bit,

Thought of you in autumn storms,

Dreamed of you on spring snow

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

Oh, how the years have passed

Still you just become even more beautiful

Hey, is it too late to ask

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

Because I have thought a little bit,

Thought of you in autumn storms,

Dreamed of you on spring snow

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

If you would be my bride in the coming summer

You would be my bride in the coming summer
