from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Och inte vill jag sörja, och sörja ändå
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Och inte vill jag sörja, [och]1 sörja ändå;
Han kommer väl igen om ett år eller två. 
När liljorna de blomstra [uti]2 marken, 
Han kommer väl igen, 
Min hjärtans lilla vän, 
För kärleken slutar så sena.
