Translation
32
My darling love, will you come back home?
33
My darling love, will you come with me?
34
My darling love, will you come back home?
35
My darling love
36
He was down at the market
37
He drank and sang all day long
38
When night came and he hadn't a penny in his pocket
39
Oh what a shame I didn't take the missus' advice
40
I met him at sunrise
41
A charming, healthy and lively young lad
42
When he lifted his hat and spoke with a smile
43
I fell in love with him, thought it would never end
44
My coat had buttons of silver
45
And the best silk ribbons in the country
46
Golden chains and precious stones
47
I truly enticed him with my glitter and gold
48
No one knew from which part of the land he came
49
He spoke nobly and with pleasant ease
50
Rumor had it that there was a lord in his family
51
It wasn't long 'til I was engaged to him
52
The bond is long and difficult to untie
53
It's much better to be sure of it*
54
It didn't take long 'til he broke my heart
55
Indeed this is not the story I'd prefer to be telling**
56
But then he went back down to the market
57
And bought a ticket for a pound or two
58
Luck was on his side, he won the lottery
59
Now we'll forever be living the good life
60
*This might mean that the link to this nobleman was a very distant one, and that 'he' therefore was not rich - in fact quite poor; so she instantly regrets her engagement to him.
61
**"A leoga" means "alas". "N seo mo sciln" means "this is not my story" (or anecdote), and "", when placed after the sentence like this, can just mean "oh", but it can also be a term of endearment, then pertaining to "sciln". So the way I think it makes the most sense is if we take "mo sciln " to mean something like "my sweet story", ie., the story that she wished she were telling now.
