Post Translation


'My mother, she killed me,
My father, he ate me,
My sister Marlene,
made sure to see
My bones were all gathered together
bound nicely in silk
as neat as can be,
Laid them beneath the Juniper tree,
Tweet, tweet, what a beautiful bird am I...'
(folktales of Aarne-Thompson-Uther
The Juniper Tree)
