The bargaining in-laws

In-laws, you give her so little
So little to our daughter,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her seven dresses,
To wear for every day of the week.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her seven blouses
To wear for every day of the week.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her seven's worth of savings
To exchange every day of the week.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her a golden necklace
To show off1 to her husband.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her good fortune
To enjoy with her husband.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her a slave
To take care of her little son2.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her good fortune
To live it with her husband.
 
In-laws, that's not enough
You give our daughter so little,
To our beloved daughter!
We'll give her a slave
To take care of her little son.
