2 6 SWEDISH SONG GAMES
Chorus
My good old fid - die, my old fid-die, my old fid - die, fid - die dear!
Setting. A large single circle, in couples, hand in hand, half obliquely
facing the right; a girl at each boy’s right. Standing in this way the
step will really be forward and not to one side.
FIGURE ONE
Description. At 1, all step to left on toes; at 2, still on toes, place
right foot beside left; at 3, feet on floor. Hands are swung elbow
high, in time to music, in same direction as the step.
Figure Two. Same as Figure One.
Figure Three. Same as Figure One, but to the right.
Figures Four and Five. Same as Figures One and Two.
Figure Six. Same as Figure Three.
Figures Seven and Eight. Same as Figures One and Two.
During chorus dance dalstep.
II
The fiddler he played so the fiddle did sing,
The walls of the cottage with music did ring,
The laddies they danced while the lassies did weep,
The fiddler he vowed his dear fiddle he’d keep. Chorus.
III
"For if I grow old as my grandfather’s well,
No cow will e’er tempt me my fiddle to sell;
And if I grow old as the moss on the pine,
I’ll never, no never, trade fiddle for kine. Chorus.
