SWEDISH SONG GAMES

Setting. Players in couples facing the center, all hand in hand,
form a large single circle. One couple, inside the circle, leads the
game. All movements should be slow and graceful.

Description. At i, the circle begins to move to the right, while the
couple inside greet each other with right hands, left hands on hips.
At 2, the boy, still holding the girl’s right hand, bows. At 3, they
greet with left hands: at 4, the girl curtseys. From 5-8 they salute,
as in 1-4. The large circle, always moving to the right in time to
music, should carefully watch the above movements, as, during
repetition of first part, each couple in circle, turning so that partners face
each other, but still forming a single circle, does the same.

In the refrain a slow change step, starting with the left foot, is
used. Leaders and circle take ring grasp and dance around to the
right to 9, to the left to end. Change partners.

II

Dance so light, my Rosa,
Dance so light, my flower,
Dance so light, my princess,
Princess mine, O my Rosa! Refrain.

Description. In this and the following verses the action is suggested
by the words. Change partners at the end of each refrain.

Ill

Clap in time, my Rosa,

Clap in time, my flower,

Clap in time, my princess,

Princess mine, O my Rosa! Refrain.

Note. All the movements are executed at 2 and 6 by the boys, and at 4 and 8 by the
girls.
