by Julia Christina Svärdström (1775 - 1854), as Euphrosyne

Till en tonkonstnär
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Höj dina vingar, 
Ljufva Musik! 
Själfullt du klingar, 
Enkel, dock rik. 

Salighet strömmar 
Ner i din röst; 
Känslornas drömmar 
Tjusa mitt bröst. 

Dagar du målar, 
Flydda alltre'n. 
Klarare strålar 
Stjernornas sken. 

Hoppet, en blomma, 
Ler på din strand, 
Aningens fromma 
Heliga land. 

Såta derinne, 
Englarne bo: 
Kärlek och Minne, 
Samljud och Tro. 

Sången en svana, 
Längtar att nå 
Flyttningens bana, 
Himmelen blå. 

Saliga toner! 
Sändningebud, 
Mellan äoner, 
Hjertan, och Gud!

Confirmed with Samlade Dikter af Euphrosyne. Andra Delen, Orebro, N. M. Lindh, 1832, page 197.
