by Anna Maria Roos (1862 - 1938)

Två små troll
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Två små troll
bodde i ett såll.
»Det rägnar», sa trollet Murr,
»det rägnar hela dagen.»
»Det är tråkigt», sa trollet Plurr,
»för jag förkyler magen.»

Rägn, rägn, rägn,
var ska' man få hägn?
»Vi måste», sa' trollet Murr,
»vårt tak med lera täta.»
»Det är rysligt», sa' trollet Plurr,
»att sitta i sådan väta!»

Ler, ler, ler
de samla mer och mer.
De smeta och smaska på, 
tills det blir tätat, sållet. 
»Nu ha' vi det bra ändå», 
sa' Murr, det äldre trollet. 

Två små troll 
sutto i sitt såll,
»Nu ha' vi det gott», sa' Murr, 
»om än det regnar hela dagen.» 
»Ja, nu är det bra», sa' Plurr, 
»och tänk, jag blev bra i magen!»
