by Gustaf Fröding (1860 - 1911)

Den främmate jänta
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Dä kom e jänte sockna
di kalla Julia
ho va så fin så tockna
fanns knafft i Kallsta sta.
Ho svängd å ho fanser sej
på mång finurlig sätt
å geck å promener sej
å rök på segarett.

Ho pek me fingre åt mej
å sa: "nä se på den"
s'att ja ble gu' förlåt mej
för flat te pek igen
å mett i skogen skrek ho:
"säj, får ja bröllop snart"
å jagu svarte eko
på stunn "ja bröllop snart".

Men den som allt ble stolli
t'å allt det här va ja
för dä va skrömt å trolli
den härna Julia
men ja ä bar en bonnson
å ho ä långe fäst
ve en di kallar Jonsson
som läser te bli präst.
