by Sigurd Agrell (1881 - 1937)

Andante
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Vid det stora ljusa
blåa havets vik
björk och hassel susa
sång till vågs musik.

Kvällens vindar krusa
lätt en mörkblå flik
i det vida ljusa.
Skyn av guld står rik.

Strandens hus av tegel
soleldsglimtar nå.
Fjärran vita segel
ännu sakta gå. —

Snart blir allt blott spegel
för ett stjärnglest blå.

Confirmed with Siurd Agrell, Valda dikter 1901—1930, Stockholm, Albert Bonniers Förlag Lund, 1931, page 85
