Trolldans

Det leikar så mangt ein sumarsnott
- I dvergjeskog, i dvergjeskog -
Alvedans og huldrelått
- å hei deg og hildrande du! -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under fjelli -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under himmel tjeld -
 
Å høyrer du Gro, kve eg seier deg
- I dvergjeskog, i dvergjeskog -
vil du til Blåfjellet rida med meg?
- å hei deg og hildrande du! -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under fjelli -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under himmel tjeld -
 
Å høyrer du Per, kvi talar du så?
- I dvergjeskog, i dvergjeskog -
Fyrr skal det springa mitt hjarteblod
- å hei deg og hildrande du! -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under fjelli -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under himmel tjeld -
 
Eg syrgjer no ikkje så såre for di
- I dvergjeskog, i dvergjeskog -
Heime ventar meg kjerringar tri!
- å hei deg og hildrande du! -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under fjelli -
- lett lege trøda me dansen i kveld under himmel tjeld -
 
Traduzione

Trolldance

They play so oft in summer night
- In dwarven forest, in dwarven forest
Elfdance and huldersong 1
- Oh hello you and ethereal you!
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the mountains
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the sky
 
Oh do you hear Gro, what I'm saying to you,
- In dwarven forest, in dwarven forest,
Do you want to ride with me to the blue mountains?
- Oh Hello you and ethereal you!
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the mountains
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the sky
 
Oh do you hear Per, why do you speak so?
- In dwarven forest, in dwarven forest
First, it shall spring my heart-blood 2
- Oh Hello you and ethereal you!
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the mountains
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the sky
 
I mourn not so wounded for you 3
- In dwarven forest, in dwarven forest
At home waits three crones for me!
- Oh Hello you and ethereal you!
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the mountains
- Lightly tread we, with our dance tonight, under the sky
 
  • 1. A hulder is a seductive forest creature
  • 2. Before that, I would need to be in love
  • 3. I don't mourn deeply about you

Hi, Thanks for your help, it's a very nice translation indeed :).
A couple of notes, first, if you can, I would recommend to take a more liberal approach (less literal) to your translation - it would take your translations to the next level :). Not that I'm against literal translations, on the contrary, I think they should complement a more liberal one
Which brings me to the second note, you can use footnote in your text to add the literal meaning, and you should also take some of what you wrote in your Author's comments and move it to footnotes to easily reference specific lines of text. To use footnotes you simply need to add the [ fn ] tag followed by your footnote text and closed with the [ /fn ] tag - all within your translation text next to the line you wish to refer (give it a try - just remove the spaces between the fn tag name and the brackets).
Lastly, your Translation source link doesn't contain a translation but a reference to the text which could go in your Author's comments instead. Adding a Translation source means that you used a an external source for your translation and are referencing it, which is not your case I suppose.
That's it, Welcome to LT, translate away :)

di=it I would presume

"as this is written in old Norwegian and/or nynorsk (New-Norwegian" It's not Old Norwegian at all. It would look very different then
