by Emil Aarestrup (1800 - 1856)
Translation Singable translation by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

Angst
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Hold fastere omkring mig 
Med dine runde Arme;
Hold fast, imens dit Hjerte 
Endnu har Blod og Varme.

Om lidt, saa er vi skilt ad, 
Som Bærenne paa Hækken;
Om lidt, er vi forsvundne,
Som Boblerne i Bækken.

Ångest
Language: Swedish (Svenska)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
Håll alltid fast omkring mig
med dina ömma händer,
så länge än din kärlek
mig tröst och lifskraft sänder.

Ty snart vi äro skilda,
som vissna blad på häcken,
snart äro vi försvunna,
som bubblorna i bäcken.
