Drömvisa
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Glittrande fjärdar i middagsljus, klingande vågor och furors sus! Hvar dröjer min kära? Ros, som knoppas på törnekvist, blomster på stig, som hon trampade sist! Hvar dröjer min kära? Slokande gran och vajande björk, glimtande vik och tjärn så mörk! Hvar dröjer min kära? Dörr, som stått öppen i många år, tröskel där ej hennes fotsteg går! Hvar dröjer min kära? Solen går upp, och solen går ned. Spindeln spinner på låsets vred! Hvar dröjer min kära?

Traumlied
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Swedish (Svenska)
Funkelnde Weiten im Sommerlicht, klingende Welle und säuselnde Ficht! Wo ruht meine Liebe? Rose, knospend im Dornenhain, Blüte, verwelkend im Dämmerschein! Wo ruht meine Liebe? Wehende Tann in Spätsommerglut, drohendes Dunkel, finstre Flut! Wo ruht meine Liebe? Türe so offen, so stumm und weit, Schwelle entschwundener, lichter Zeit! Wo ruht meine Liebe? Kaum glüht der Sonne schwindender Schein. Spinnen weben die Träume ein! Wo ruht meine Liebe?
