Hennes budskap

Kom, du sorgsna nordan;
Varje gång du kommer.
Bär du bud från henne.
Kommer du i fläkten.
Bär du hennes suckar;
Kommer du i ilen.
Bär du hennes klagan;
Kommer du i stormen.
Bär du hennes verop:
"Ve mig, edsförgätna.
Ve mig, ensam blevna!
Ur den gamles armar,
Från hans kalla kyssar,
O, vem för mig åter
Till min varma yngling,
Till min första kärlek!"

Son message

Viens, triste vent du nord ;
Chaque fois que tu viens
Tu apportes un message d'elle.
Si tu viens comme une brise,
Tu apportes ses soupirs ;
Si tu viens comme une rafale
Tu apportes sa complainte ;
Si tu viens comme une tempête,
Tu apportes son cri de douleur :
"Hélas, mes serments ont été oubliés,
Hélas, je suis restée seule !
Loin des bras du vieux,
Loin de ses baisers froids,
Oh, qui me ramènera
À mon doux jeune homme,
À mon premier amour !"
