Mitt hjärta, vildmarkens fågel
Language: Swedish (Svenska)  after the English 
Mitt hjärta, vildmarkens fågel 
har funnit sin rymd i dina ögon. 
De äro morgonens vagga, 
de äro stjärnornas rike. 
Mina sånger gå som vilsekomna barn i deras djup. 
Låt mig blott sväva i den rymden, 
i dess ensamma oändlighet.
