Venelite
This is a song from my favorite Danish band, Sorten Muld. Of course it's perhaps a be a bit difficult to understand since it's in Danish. I discovered this group thanks to a Danish friend of mine the very 1st year I was in Denmark and didn't understand the lyrics either. I learnt some Danish by reading the text. But anyway, I almost never listen to the lyrics when I listen a song. I care much more about the music (unless lyrics are completely stupids or agressives, then I don't listen at all.)

Lyrics
| Venelite / Venelite |
| Venelite rider ud fra sin faders gård da ser hun bjergkongen frem for hende står - Tiril liril lilil haugjen min og de leged så let gennem lunden - ‘Hør nu Venelite hvad jeg siger dig Nu skal du til bjerget med hjem følge mig' Så rider de igennem så mørk og lang en skov og Venelite græd hver gang Bjergkongen lo Så rider de tre gange bjerget omkring og bjerget lader sig åbne deri går de ind Så stiller han mjød og vin frem på sit bord ‘Drik nu Venelite glem din far og mor' Da Venelite tredie gang af mjødglasset tog glemte hun sin faders gård glemte hun sin tro I bjerget er du fanget i bjerget skal du bo I bjerget skal du hvile men aldrig finde ro - Tiril liril lilil haugjen min og de leged så let gennem lunden - - Tiril liril lilil haugjen min og hun kalder så sagte i vinden - | Venelite rides out of her father's yard and sees the Mountain King standing before her Tiril liril lilil haugjen min and they played so lightly through the grove "Listen now Venelite to what I have to say You are to follow me to my mountain home" So they rode through the long dark forest and Venelite wept as the Mountain king laughed Then three times they did circle the mountain and the mountain opened to let them in He set before her mead and wine "Drink now, Venelite, forget your father and mother" By the third glass of mead Venelite had forgotten her father's farm and her faith In the mountain you have been captured, In the mountain you shall live. Here you will rest, but never find peace Tiril liril lilil haugjen min and they played so lightly through the grove Tiril liril lilil haugjen min and she calls so softly in the wind |
