by Berta Elisabet Sjögren (1866 - 1967)

Visan om Donni (min lilla hund)
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Donni är en liten hund,
vit med ljusbrunt huvud,
öron lena, ögon milda,
bläs i panna och på mund.

Hon är född vid Öresund
uti danska landet,
men en svensk är hennes herre,
och hon bor på Stockholms grund.

I en vacker bokträdslund
var det som de möttes,
Donnis herre och hans vovve,
då en liten vilsen hund.

Kärlek band dem hop på stund,
kärlek öm och trogen.
Hem och namn fick lilla Donni
och är nu en lycklig hund.
