Borti Toverudmarka, sørom Buråsplassa
Ligger bønnen der ilden lurer
En kølabrenner og en medligger
I kveldinga slår mila ut i toppen

Brenner¡¯n skrider til verks
Men ilden er for snar
Inn i bønnens indre faller han
Et fandensbesatt skrik slepper ut

En grepa brenner den tok
Ilden er sulten i dag

Medligger¡¯n skrider til verks
Men ilden er for slu
Mila slo ut enda en gang
Oppå milekøllen faller han og svartner

Ei arm og skallen den tok
Ilden er grådig i dag

Folk kjem hastende tel
Kølabrennern Burås skrider til verks
Inn i milekøllen kaster han medligger¡¯n
Så brenner han mila ferdig

Ta Sagåsmannen er det ingenting att
Ilden krevde sitt i natt

Aldri fekk dem som gikk i mila fred
Aldri stilt for han på bønn
Aldri ro om natta der var
Aldri fekk dem døra te å slå

Døra blei så slått ut
Og banka nedi ei bønn
En appell blei gitt:
Hvil i fred, fall til ro

Seia har det vært stilt
Bønnen kaller man nå for
Oppbrennerbønn

Translation:

Far away in the Toverud forest, southern Buråsplassa
There's a place where fire deceives
A charcoal burner and a companion
In the evening were putting off a stack of woods on the top

The burner starts to work
But fire is too fast
He falls in the charcoal kiln
A b______ scream came out

An excellent burner it took
The fire is hungry today

The companion starts to work
But fire is too sly
He tries to put off the stack once again
On the stack of woods he falls and toasts himself

An arm and the skull it took
The fire is voracious today

People came hasty
Burås charcoal burner starts to work
In the stack of woods he casts the companion
The pyre burns him rapidly

According to the men of Sagås there's nothing that
The fire didn't claim for itself that night

Those that went to the charcoal kiln never had peace
Never silence for those in that place
Never rest there was at night
They could never close the door

The door was pulled off
And knocked down on the charcoal kiln
An appeal was given:
Rest in peace, fall in rest

Since then it has quieted
The charcoal kiln is now called
The charcoal kiln of the fire
