Komi þeir sem koma vilja
Took out the poem "Komi þeir sem koma vilja" since it isn't associated with þrettándinn. It's mainly associated with folk traditions on New Year's Eve (or Christmas Eve), neither of which currently has a section in this article, and is part of a house-cleaning tradition. The best-known version is:
Komi þeir sem koma vilja (Come, those who would come) Veri þeir sem vera vilja (Stay, those who would stay) Fari þeir sem fara vilja (Go, those would go) Mér og mínum að meinlausu (Doing no harm to me or my family)
Source: Íslenzkar þjóðsögur og æfintýri (1864)
A shorter variant (the one just deleted from the þrettándinn section) is: Komi þeir sem koma vilja Fari þeir sem fara vilja Mér og mínum að meinalausu. --Sylgja (talk) 14:23, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
