Visa en vårmorgon

Högre uppsteg dagen
glädjen och behagen
väcktes ur sin långa vinterdvala
Vårens krans blev bunden
göken gol i lunden
och kring hyddan flög min kända svala
Luften ljöd och skogen
minsta fågel trogen
och i stämmor späda hjärtats brand

Song on a Spring morning       Translation by H. Lindqvist

The day rose higher
Joy and beauty
awakened from their winter sleep
Ready the garland of spring
The cuckoo in the forest
and around the house
my dear swallow
The air resounding in the forest
true to even the smallest bird
and in the small voices
the heart on fire
