Dronning Dagmar ligger udi Ribe syg
Queen Dagmar lies ill in Ribe
Til Ringsted lader hun sig vente
They're awaiting her in Ringsted
Alle de fruer, i Danmark er
All the ladies who are in Denmark
Dem lader hun til sig hente
She has them brought to her
Udi Ringsted hviles Dronning Dagmar
In Ringsted, Queen Dagmar is laid to rest
Liden Kirsten ind ad døren tren
The little Kirsten stepped in through the door
Med tugt og megen somme
With pain and great dignity
Dronning Dagmar sidder hende op igen
Queen Dagmar sits her up again
Hun favne så vel hendes komme
She embraces her coming so well
Udi Ringsted hviles Dronning Dagmar
In Ringsted, Queen Dagmar is laid to rest
De ledte hende ud, de ledte hende ind
They lead her outside, they lead her inside
De blev jo længere ræde
They kept on getting more scared
Imedens det kan ej bedre vorde,
While it can't get better,
I sender bud efter min herre!
Send for my lord!
Udi Ringsted hviles Dronning Dagmar
In Ringsted, Queen Dagmar is laid to rest
Der var ynk i stuerne
There was pity in the rooms
Der la'er de fruer græde
There, they let the ladies cry
Dronning Dagmar død i liden Kirstens arme
Queen Dagmar died in little Kirsten's arms
Da kongen red op ad strædet
When the king rode up the street
Udi Ringsted hviles Dronning Dagmar
In Ringsted, Queen Dagmar is laid to rest
