Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Den grannesta flicka därhemma, pina å dö ä Måns Tattares svartöjda Emma, e däjeli mö! Hennes hår dä ä svart somdi mörkesta nättera! Å dä underlit då, att längtar ättera? Når speleman inne på logen drillar en dans, ä Tattare Emma från skogen den licksta som fanns Te si, ho ä kringest i svingande vänningar, når storpolksa går, så dä vischar i klänningar! Å gubben han säjer därhemma, att en ä dum, som håller åv Tattare-Emma. Va bryr en sej um att Tattare-Måns, hennes far, ä en stackare, som skälles för skojare, tjuvstryk å rackare.
