about

"Poems from Öland"

“Carmina Oelandica” (Poems from Öland) depicts the hard life of a skurverk (grinding mill) worker in the past. Besides describing daily life as a working hero, the song -partly in Oelandic dialect - combines motifs from Carmina Burana, the Eddaic Grottesången and Viktor Rydberg’s Den Nya Grottesången.

Lineup:
Johanna Ribnikov Gunnarsson: Vocals
Sergio Ribnikov Gunnarsson: Vocals, Irish bouzouki
Santiago Molina: Pinkillu
Manuel Villar Lifac: Violin, cello, contrabass
Albert Castillo Asenjo: Bodhrán

lyrics

Kvarnen går, den maler
Våran go-sten slipas dagen lång
But och flisa, vind, vår lisa
Hjulet har sin gång

Oxa drager, skurverksnavet
Grinar ut sin klagopsalm
Öket tungt, följ oxa runt
Här slipas mången palm

Har vi malbör, välfylld stenbjörn
Båd te kvarn och skurverk
Liv och russel, väj för skjutsen
Skutan väntar i hamn

Främmigt folk blé vé vår sten
Di bygger körka, hus och slott
Heminté i väl och ve
En husbonn har det gott

Mens en anni stretar, kan di veta
Hocken bet dé é
Int så dapert, alltin knapert
Tjäänt för liten lott

Kaas och hanka, harponknarpa
För att klara leven
Dack på förman, glöpen tar han
Det som flis-karln skull fått

Fortune rota volvitur
Descendo minoratus
Alter in altum tollitur
Nimis exaltatus
Rex sedet in vertice
Caveat ruinam!
Nam sub axe legimus
Hecubam reginam

Stärk drar Fenja, färm tar Menja
Grotte, en ohävlig but
Jätten stret nok better
Tjäänt e föök föruten slut

Fogden Frode trood han gjorde
Klokt ta di te trälavärv
Antererad blé han sedan
Malt sä te fördärv

Skarpa hällor, alvrekällor
Varevi dá vår hamn på jora
Dela strävseln, ock förtjänsten
Kvarnen snurrar sitt varv
