by Nils Johan Einar Ferlin (1898 - 1961)

Helgnatt
Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch) 
De avlägsna klockor tona
så milt över fjärd och gatt.
— Vad trevar din själ att sona
i denna förklarade natt?

För stjärnljusets skull må du stanna
att — ensam och oförskräckt,
blotta din kainspanna
för gryning och morgonväkt.
