Описание к видео Skänk en slant åt spelman after Viksta-Lasse - Pedagogic version

Give a coin to the fiddler from around 1850. This is a rather forward song where the fiddler begs for money, especially since his wife is sick and he has eight children, ”so why should I, that stand on the brink of distress, feel ashamed to beg a penny from you Sir?” Sweden has many giving songs at least 300 years back where the fiddler, usually more politely, asks for money and in return promises the donor a beautiful girl who will sleep on his arm.
