Kong Olav den heilage skuklle byggje spir
på Domen i Nidaros by
han greidde det ikkje og lova sola til den
som fekk spiret til å rage mot sky
Men trur du at nokon melde seg?
Berre ei halv mil frå byen
på Ladehammaren ut
der budde ein diger jotne
med namnet som einaste sut
Skal tru om den jotnen melde seg?
Han tykte den løne var gjev og gild
så jobben den ville han ha
men kongen måtte vere snill
og namnet hans inni seg ha
Slik gjekk det at jotnen melde seg
Og jotnen jobba både dag og natt
til spiret stod der i glans
han drøymde om kongens digre skatt
snart skulle sola bil hans
Skal tru om den kongen angra seg?
Ved midnatt rodde han Olav av stad
til Kjerringberget i båt
gygra roa barnet ned
for å stanse den barnegråt
Kva var det han høyrde Gygra si?
"æ lova dæ sola - det himmelske gull
så snart han Blæster e' fri
for arbeid på spiret te' Domen - i rette tid"
Skal tru om den kongen angra seg?
Olav rodde heim av all si makt
han måtte til Blæster sjå
forutan ein knapp var spiret lagt
han var nesten ferdig med det
Skal tru om den kongen angra seg?
Kong Olav den heilage ropa ut:
"Blæster korr flink du e'"
straks jotnen høyrde namnet sitt
han døydde og ramla ned
Skal tru om den kongen fryda seg?
