Original lyrics
Torkils Døtur
Torkil eigur sær døtur tvær
At dansa
Leingi á morgni sova tær
Og væl er mær ansað
Her vil eg á gólvið fram at dansa
Tó at tú vilt mær lív í vanda
Væl er mær ansað
Tær sova sær so leingi á dag
Til sól skín á teirra seingjastað
Ása lítla tendra ljós
Vallarin er til seingjar fúsur
Ása kastaði hurð til gátt
Vallari, hav nú góða nátt
Torkil heitir á sveinar tvá
Gangið á sjógv og kyndi bál
Tað var um ein morgun ný
At dansa
Vallarin brann í grønari líð
Og væl er mær ansað
Her vil eg á gólvið fram at dansa
Tó at tú vilt mær lív í vanda
Væl er mær ansað

Translation
Torkil's Daughters
Torikil has two daughters
dancing
Long into the morning they sleep
And I am comfortable
Here I will dance upon the floor
Though you'd have my life threatened
I am comfortable
They sleep so long into the day
Til the sun shines into their bedrooms
Little Ása kindles the light
The vagrant is eager for bed
Ása threw open the door
Vagrant, have a good night
Torkil calls on his two boys
Go to sea and light a pyre
It was one new morning
dancing
The vagrant burned in the green grove
And I am comfortable
Here I will dance upon the floor
Though you'd have my life threatened
I am comfortable
