For more information please contact archives@augsburg.edu From the album: "Sung in Swedish. Although written in Sweden, this song is almost unknown there today. Anne-Charlotte had never heard it before coming to the U.S., where she learned it from an old recording by Olle i Skratthult. Bellmanstro is an oak grove in the park of Djurgården in Stolkholm, named after the 18th century composer and poet Carl Mìchael Bellman, whose bust was unveiled there in 1829. The girl in the song tells how, many years ago, she met a charming fellow at Bellmansro, who assisted her in lacing up her shoe. ‘He pledged to love me and to be true, / And I saw Heaven there at Bellmansro.’ Then he departed to order supper for two and was never heard from again. ‘But if I catch him, hang on I’ll do, / To him as well as to my Bellmansro!’--Stephen, mandolin and guitar; Craig, bass; Maury, accordion."
