by Anna Maria Roos (1862 - 1938)

Vaktparaden
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Se på vaktparaden,
som marscherar där!
Se på hela raden
blänkande gevär!
Blanka bajonetter,
granna epåletter,
kaskarnas ägretter,
kaskarnas ägretter,
uti solen lysa där,
uti solen lysa där.

Hör den stora trumman: 
Trumme rumme rum!
Hör trumpeter brumma: 
»Tror ni jag ä' stum?» 
Sablarna de klinga, 
pojkarna de springa, 
och små töser svinga 
och små töser svinga 
muntert om i vårluft ljum,
muntert om i vårluft ljum.

Fram går vaktparaden 
upp till kungens slott. 
Lejongul fasaden 
står mot valvet blått.
Vita måsar fara, 
skria högt och svara 
trumma, tuba, trumma, 
vita måsar svara trumma, 
tuba, trumma och fagott,
tuba och fagott.
