by Vilhelm Ekelund (1880 - 1949)

Jag diktar för ingen
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Jag diktar för ingen, 
för vinden som vandrar, 
för regnet som gråter, 
min sång är som blåsten, 
min sång som mumlar 
och går i höstnattens 
mörker och talar med jorden 
och natten och regnet. 
Jag diktar för ingen.
