by Rafaël Hertzberg (1845 - 1896)

Är han än mig trogen?
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Ack, att till mitt hjertas vän
Dock så lång är färden!
Lång är färden öfver mon,
Lång utöfver fjerden.
Fjerran borta dröjer han
Från sin älsklings sida.
Verlden skiljt oss från hvarann,
Ack, den kalla, vida!

Kunde rymdens foglar små
Mig en helsning bringa,
Straxt då skulle sorgen fly,
Som mitt bröst betvingar;
Lilla fogel, som så glad,
Slår sin drill i skogen!
Kommer ifrån vännen du?
Är han än mig trogen?

Text ur "Finska toner"
