by Theodor Lindh (1833 - 1904)

Liten knopp, moders hopp
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Liten knopp, 
moders hopp, 
slumrar så sött, så stilla. 
Rosig varm, sorgfri barm. 
Skydde dig, Gud, du lilla!

Lik en dröm, 
vek och öm, 
smyger min sång till ditt öra, 
ljuvt du ler, 
o, jag ser, 
hur tonerna dig röra.

Fosterland, 
frihetsbrand, 
sanning i verk, i lära. 
Oförsagd, 
ädel bragd, 
allt för Sverige, det kära!

Fram, allt stort 
som är spordt, 
fram, med Gud det våga! 
Ned, allt våld, 
ned, all sold, 
ned, det lumpna, låga.

Orden nyss, 
till dem lyss, 
fäst dem djupt i ditt minne! 
Låt dem bo, 
låt dem gro, 
gro och växa därinne.
