Lyrics:
Fru Tala hon drömde i natt
Vak upp här är en god tid
Att den rike herr Holger han skulle ge tappt
Den rike herr Holger
Jag drömde jag drömde om vår gångare grå
Han bar dig till tinget du dödde där uppå
Min kära fru Tala du säg icke så
Dina drömmar kan väl vakna om en åtta år
De stötte på dörren med stänger och spjut
Är herr Holger så skall han här ut
Herr Holger han talte till svennerna två
I läggen gullsadeln på gångaren grå
När som de var komna till Köpenhamn
Der ståndar kung Kristian på hvitan den strand
I varen välkommen herr Holger till mig
Herr Holger herr Holger det kostar ditt lif
Kung Kristian klippte det hufvudet af
Så blodet det neder till fötterna rann
När fru Tala fick se hennes herre var lik
Så domnas hon under skarlaknen hvit
Herr Holger blev grafven när klockan var tolf
När klockan var elfva så kom han igen
Han klappar på dörren med fingrarne små
Fru Tala stig upp dra låsarne frå
Med ingen så hafver jag stämma utsatt
Och ingen så släpper jag in uti natt
Min kära fru Tala gif bonden sin ko
För i helvete der är så svårt att bo
Fru Tala gif Romman och Skromman igen
För i helvete är så svårt att brinna för din vän
Nej om jag så skulle i helvete som svan
Så vill jag ej blifva utfattig försann
Far du i helvete med svennerna dina
vak upp här är en god tid
Så kommer jag efter med möerna mina
Den rike herr Holger
Sir Holger - Translated to English by Alistar Cochraine:
Lady Tala she dreamed a dream one night
Wake up for the time it is right
That the rich Sir Holger would lose his heart
That rich Sir Holger
I dreamed I dreamed of our grey steed
He carried you to the court where you died
My dear Lady Tala say not so
May your dreams awaken after the eighth year
They bashed at the door with poles and spears
If Sir Holger is in there he must come out
Sir Holger he spoke with his two squires
"Saddle my steed with the saddle of gold"
When they arrived at Copenhagen
There stood King Kristian on the white shore
You Sir Holger are welcome to me
Sir Holger Sir Holger it will cost you your life
King Kristian chopped the head right off
So that blood ran down over his feet
When Lady Tala saw her master's corpse
She went numb under the white sheet
Sir Holger was laid to rest at twelve
At the stroke of eleven he rose up again
He knocked at the door with fingers so thin
Lady Tala slide back the bolts, let me in
With no one have I arranged to meet
And I will let no one in after the night's fall
My dear Lady Tala give the farmer his cow
'Cause in Hell it is so difficult to live
Lady Tala return Romman and Skromman
'Cause in Hell it's hard to burn for your friend
Even if I'd go to Hell as a swan
I would truly not live as a pauper
Go to Hell with your squires
Wake up for the time it is right
And I will follow with my maidens
The rich Sir Holger
This medieval ballad tells the story of Sir Holger, a tax collector who puts too much in his own pocket. He is punished by King Kristian, who cuts off Sir Holger's head. Holger reappears as a ghoul to warn his wife that she might end up in hell - as he has done - if she doesn't give back what she hasn't righteously earned. However, his wife prefers a wealthy life to a prospect of heaven.

The lyrics of this song are based on a medieval broadside ballad (called Skillingtryck in Sweden as they were sold for one skilling which was the smaller denomination in the old riksdaler currency), little is known about the origins of the song, apparently it was widely known in Skåne/Scania, former Danish territory, when historians archived traditional folk songs there in the 1800s, but it was not known outside that part of Sweden.
Garmarna's rendition has shortened the lyrics somewhat. The full song is archived under SMB 36 Aa in the national archive of medieval ballads since 1880, but which isn't currently publicly available :/
According to Svend Grundtvig, the ballad of Herr Holger is a version of the ballad of Marsk Stig. I think it's possible that this version was renamed after Holger den rige Rosenkrantz (1586-1647). This guess is, however, only based on a few pieces of circumstantial evidence; he lived in Skåne, his epithet was 'the rich' like in the ballad, he collected tax (like all nobles) and he was summoned to Copenhagen over some dispute with the king.
Sweden is the mother of good music. Thank you for this
***** haha if you say so!
+Max Edelstahl Yes, proud father of Aqua! ;-)
+Max Edelstahl No, I really enjoyed listening to Lis Sörensen, Sanne Salomonsen, "Vi är röde, vi är hvide", Sko/Torp and Lars Ulrich in Metallica back in the 80's and the 90's. The conclusion is that Denmark is more of a father of good music than (at least) Norway. :-)
Yes this is right 👍👍👍😊
Yes and Avicii was from Sweden 👍🏻
En av Sveriges bästa band utan tvekan! Jag älskar dem!
Time flies. How young they were back then.
*Other countries with their literary and poetic metaphors and stories:* "Oh damn I was so damn selfish and wrong about my ways. I will not only give back what I didn't righteously earned but will from this day on dedicate my life to charity!"
*Scandinavian literature and folklore:* "Mate I'd rather go to hell than be bloody poor yolo"
What an amazing language.
TR🤍
What a great language, voice and music! Love it!
*Sir Holger*
Lady Tala she dreamed a dream one night
Wake up for the time it is right
That the rich Sir Holger would lose his heart
That rich Sir Holger...
"I dreamed I dreamed of our grey steed
He carried you to the court where you died"
"My dear Lady Tala say not so
May your dreams awaken after the eighth year"
They bashed at the door with poles and spears
"If Sir Holger is in there he must come out"
Sir Holger he spoke with his two squires
"Saddle my steed with the saddle of gold"
When they arrived at Copenhagen
There stood King Kristian on the white shore
"You, Sir Holger, are welcome to me
Sir Holger, Sir Holger it will cost you your life"
King Kristian chopped the head right off
So that blood ran down over his feet
When Lady Tala saw her master's corpse
She went numb under the white sheet
Sir Holger was laid to rest at twelve
At the stroke of eleven he rose up again
He knocked at the door with fingers so thin
"Lady Tala slide back the bolts, let me in"
"With no one have I arranged to meet
And I will let no one in after the night's fall"
"My dear Lady Tala give the farmer his cow
'Cause in Hell it is so difficult to live"
"Lady Tala return Romman and Skromman
'Cause in Hell it's hard to burn for your friend"
"Even if I'd go to Hell as a swan
I would truly not live as a pauper"
"Go to Hell with your squires
Wake up for the time it is right
And I will follow with my maidens"
The rich Sir Holger
Thankyou 4 the Lyrics
Thanks 💜
Если переводить в русские реалии начала 00х, то жена криминального авторитета рассказывает своему мужу о своём сне, в это время в дверь постучали органы. Авторитет попытался сбежать в Москву со своими братками, но на въезде в Москву Владимир его убил. Главарь ОПГ воскрес, попросил свою жену вернуть всё награбленное, иначе он будет попадёт в ад. Его жена отказывается всё отдавать, авторитет попал в ад.
Garmarna !! Thank you so much for your music! I don't understand Swedish, but the music, singing style, melody... it's just so amazing, it fills my heart with joy and longing for soemthing more than just this life, some nostalgia, untold beauty... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR MUSIC!! (btw thanks for giving translations to your lyrics!! :) )
Tack Garmarna för att ni gör mina favoritlåtar. Det är mycket behövligt!
Greetings from Turkey ❤❤❤
Den beste sangen, jeg likte den så godt at jeg ble smittet av denne sangen.
Fantastic song, i get chills from it:)
One of my favorite songs by Garmarna...
My teachers sister made this lol
Whoever this Mister Holger was, they don't seem to like him very much...
Most people don't like corrupt tax collectors. Hell people don't even like the honest ones
Unbelievable great song from an unbelievable great band.
This is one amazing song.
2021 still good
So good, i fking love nordic languages
Sil klippte bakom huset. Och för sitt hemland Sverige😢😢😢😢😢
mi canción favorita. una de las mejores bandas en la historia de la música.
Wow, I just discovered this band, and I'm enjoying this song.

@@cihanakar5253 wow, you just copied my coment.
I just listened to this song for the first time in 12 years... Feels good.
Gorgeous. Been listening to for a decade. I don't think RUclips timing is correct.
Vielen Dank für die Übersetzung
Beautiful music and voice. Thanks for sharing ☘🍂🍃🌻🍃🍂☘
heavy and beautiful!
Ich heiße zufällig Holger und ich finde dieses Lied genial. Möge ich nie das gleiche Ende wie dieser korrupte Namensvetter von mir finden... xD
Nicht alle Holger sind gleich
Herr Dorfmeister hat doch nur Schiss. ^^ ;-P
älskar det
Theyre easly the best in the genre, yet too old to really be as well known as the others. Its a damn shame. I still remember back in th day when fejd, garmarna and gjallarhorn were the only clean nordic folk acts you could find. They helped me really embrace michigans turbulent winters, and my own swedo-finnic heritage. Everyone knows einar selvik and wardruna since vikings made them famous, but the OGs deserve a shoutout. Same to the OGs of the folk metal scene, tyr, faun, Korpiklaani, finntroll, late burzum even... Oh cant forget falconer. Damn good band.
HAIL GARMARNA!!!
Reclaim Europe!✌👊
Y e s
hail sweden
So beautiful :) Love Garmarna and Sweden of course!
Such a powerful force...
I had a friend who used to guest play with them. I never liked them to mutch. I liked Hedningarna better. My friend who used to play with garmarna tried to make me listen. Now I dont understand why I didnt loved them. They are best, period. Hedningarna is great, Garmarna is best. I had all the chances in the world to meet all this people and I didnt take it. My friend had his own studio and they recorded atleast his playing there. This music is like balsam for my soul....
thats too bad, but it takes time to appreciate something amasing as this! be glad that you've eventually found the meaning of their music. and maybe you'll get another chance to thank them personally again :)
Merci radio kerne pour la découverte !
Nice! natti natti snalla!
Nagyon jo
Love it!
best song ever ❤️
**GREETINGS FROM MONS BERTISCUS - ALBANIA**
Uma ótima banda
The perfect song for chopping lords' heads off in these disastrous times.
Det perfekt låt för att klippa herrernas huvuder av under dessa katastrofala tider!
Förlåt min dålig svensk! Jag är amerikansk, og jag ber om ursäkt för mitt lands imperium.
Din svenska är ok för att inte vara svensk (your swedish is ok for a non-swedish person.
Story in the song: a corrupt tax collector goes to Hell. He comes back to tell his wife that, if she gives back all he stole, she'll not only free him from Hell, but save herself from the same fate. She says, nah, I'd rather go to Hell than be poor.
Очень жизненно)
Insane!!!!
Yeah ! Whoever take into accountiong shoul'd make you own bill ready.
I am very happy that I found translated lyrics. But still I have no idea what "Romman and Skromman" is. Anybody knows about it?
muchas gracias!!
Oh? Indeed & Rightigh
SWEDISH = GREAT
É sobre descida de um corrupto. Forte isso. Cada um cuide de si.
Der Name Holger,
Altnordisch
Deutsch, Skandinavisch
Zweigliedriger Name
holmi = die Insel (Altnordisch); geirr = der Speer (Altisländisch)
Der dem Kampfspeer holde
Der von der Insel kam und mit dem Speer kämpfte.
Gruß von Holger
Amazing! :-)
2017 and counitng :D
🌹
Ibland tror jag fortfarande att jag kan känna vikingablod i mina ådror
Aha ok tack!
Fy søren så herlig musikk!! :D Jeg bare elsker den spesielle måten/dialekten den synges på. Eller er det gammel svensk?
Gammalt svensk så vit jag vet.
Ja exakt. De sjunger på gammalsvenska.
Btw where are you from?
I think it is Old Swedish,maybe this version of Swedish is much more closer to Norwegian than Danish is,am I right?
It is sweden?
Yes, it is Old Swedish.

Olov Johanson in the clip ???
What's the story behind this song? Why does the king want to kill Sir Holger and what's the deal with the cows? Tried to find an explanation online...
Malin Johansson can u do the lyrics in english please
Sir Holger is a corrupt tax collector and the cows were stolen by him. The king is not a fan of the whole thing
Nah, nein ! Don't scare the littli ones !!!
Россия тоже слушает Garmarna. Началось всё с незабываемой Gamen.
It's amazing how we humans can voice our thoughts with a spoken word , in any language !! prise GOD !!!!
GODS*
Or rather the one God with many faces...
Foda demais!
Jeg er en Viking|| ;)
sounds like the start of a led zepplin song ,which i wont mention
so, what do you thing? )) it's cool? )
My name is actually Holger and I just thought what would happen when I go to Hell. Most likely Satan would throw me out because I am really clumsy. After trashing half of Hell, accidentally, I would have to go. :D
There's no hell...mate...
