about
Estonian archaic runo song, translated as “I Was Sent to the Forest”, performed as a trio. Sung in an old Estonian dialect, this song depicts a lament by an orphan girl who has lost both her parents.
lyrics
Aeti mu mõtsa, aeti mõtsa ommukult,
varra inne, varra inne valgõt
Anti mul peiu, anti peiu pikk vits,
kandli ala', kandli ala' karjavits
Oles mul olnu, oles mul olnu uma imä,
elanü, elanü uma esä
Andnu mul peiu, andnu peiu piimämuru,
kandli ala', kandli ala' karjamuru
Võõras an'd peiu, võõras an'd peiu pikä vitsa,
kandli ala', kandli ala' karjavitsa
An'd luu, an'd luu, ütel liha,
an'd koorigu, an'd koorigu, kuulut' är
Oles mul olnu, oles mul olnu uma imä,
elanü, elanü uma esä
Imä an'd liha, imä an'd liha, ütel' luu,
an'd tükü, an'd tükü, ütel' tüh
