Exempel

“Jag var ung en gång för längesen, en flottare med färg. Alla jäntor var som vax uti min famn. I alla torp, i alla byar hade jag en liten vän, ifrån Norderås till skiljet ner vid Berg.”

I was young once, a long time ago, a log driver with color [maybe charming, vital, not gray, etc. – not a (well-known) idiom]. All the girls [somewhat folksy word for girl] were like wax in my arms [embrace]. In every croft, in every village [in all crofts, in all villages], I had a little friend, from Norderås to the log boom [from skilja (“separate”), in the sense of a place where logs are separated] down by Berg.
