Artist and Muse. Ludwig Thiersch (German, 1825-1909).

The Wolf Song. Ronja Rövardotter (Ronia the robbers daugther). Jonna Jinton (Contemporary Swedish artist).
Lyrics:
Vargen ylar i nattens skog (The wolf is howling in the forest of the night), Han vill men kan inte sova (He wants to, but cannot sleep), Hungern river i hans varga buk (The hunger tears his wolven stomach), Och det är kallt i hans stova (And it's cold in his burrow), Du varg du varg, kom inte hit (Wolf, wolf, don't you come here), Ungen min får du aldrig ( I will never let you take my child), Vargen ylar i nattens skog (The wolf is howling in the forest of the night), Ylar av hunger o klagar (Howling out of hunger and moaning), Men jag ska ge'n en grisa svans (But I will give him a pig tail), Sånt passar i varga magar (Which suits a wolven stomach), Du varg du varg, kom inte hit (Wolf, wolf, don't you come here), Ungen min får du aldrig ( I will never let you take my child)

Traditional Midsummer Lithuanian Folk Song.
Translation of the lyrics: Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, who's walking outside? Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, a young lad is walking there. Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, and what is he looking for? Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, he's got his eyes out for a young lassie. Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, and, there, he met a lassie Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, as she was raking the green hay. Corn-cockle, ye rose, round, God bless ye, lassie!
It's about fertility and the continuity of their people, I assume.
