:) Megfogtam egy szúnyogot, nagyobb volt egy lónál, Kisütöttem a zsírját, több volt egy akónál. Aki eztet elhiszi szamarabb a lónál, Aki eztet elhiszi szamarabb a lónál. Még azt mondják nem illik a tánc a magyarnak. Nem ha néki cipellőt, bő nadrágot varrnak. De sarkantyús csizmának, kócsag tollas főnek, Illik gyöngyös pártának, magyar főkötőnek. Az én ingem lengyelgyolcs, csakhogy rojtja nincsen. Az én csizmám karmazsin, csak hogy talpa nincsen. Azért varrták a csizmát, hogy táncoljunk benne, Ha rongyos is, foltos is, illik a tánc benne. Megfogtam egy szúnyogot, nagyobb volt egy lónál, Kisütöttem a zsírját, több volt egy akónál. Varrd meg varga a csizmát, megadom az árát, Ha nem varrod odadom, a szúnyogom háját.
Hei Mandula Zöld, thank you for the Hungarian lyricks! It seems the Finnish text is only a tiny part of the original lyricks. Is this a well-known song in Hungary?
@@lassilogren My english no good, but... Caught a mosquito, It was bigger than a horse. I drained his fat. More than one aco (unit) Who believes this, donkey (silly).
Hi Lassi. I listened to this song sitting here in Hawaii and my brain went “I know that song from my childhood in Denmark” and I found the lyrics on line. I don’t speak Finnish at all but if it is the same song it is about catching a mosquito and boiling off the fat and storing it in a barrel and then trading it in for some boots. Kiitos! - Pernille
Hi there! Do you give online courses? Because of you I want to learn Jouhikko, I just bought myself an instrument from etsy. And when will be your next concert? I would love to see you live! The song is cool, in German we also have strange meaning but funny songs.
Hello! Sorry the delay. Yes, I’m giving also Online lessons. Please write Messenger or lassi.logren@gmail.com The next solo concert is 26.11.21 in Oslo, Folkelarm Festival 🙂
Hello! Talharpa tuning is C#4-G#4-C#3, horse hair strings. There is no 4th string on that instrument on the video even if it has four tuningpegs. Ps. You can fing the tunings on the video descriptions.
