Såri, råri, liten Sull
haddø me ein pøse full,
løa og så låvin
stabburo og så kåvin
Småe guta høggø ved
Småe guta høggø ved
Småe jento draga te
langt ova lio
langt ova lio.
Sleep calmly, little song
If we had a bag full,
The shed and the barn,
The larder house and the alcove.
Little boys chop wood
Little boys chop wood
Little girls travel there
High up the hillside
High up the hillside.
