Det var i ungdomens glada dagar 
vi gärna gingo i skogar, 
hagar, men hösten kom och vår sol gick ner 
och sedan sågos vi icke mer.

Du tror väl aldrig att jag dig glömmer, 
ty när jag sofver om dig jag drömmer, 
så är du alltid mig lika när, 
och bäst jag ser dig när mörkt det är.

Om bara timmarna ville glida - 
om bara dagarna ville skrida - 
så skall jag vänta med tåligt sinn, 
ty en gång kommer väl vännen min.
