Fyra sånger

Song Cycle by Lennart Hedwall (b. 1932)

1. Jag fryser om dina händer  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Jag fryser om dina händer.
När du ler blir jag varm av dig.
Du är glädjen som allting tänder
och ångesten på min stig.

Så rik är jag vorden och väger
en värld sen jag blivit din.
Så fattig att inte jag äger
en droppe blod som är min.

2. Musik  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Så ljust, så blitt, så lyckostilla kan morgonhimlen tona. 
Och på den skira grunden vaggar ett träd sin krona. 
I trädet hör jag genom fönstret en fågel sakta sjunga, 
ned i mitt sinne vek jag känner en ström av toner gunga. 
Jag lyssnar stilla. Allting hör jag i samma jubel tona. 
Och på den skira grunden vaggar ett träd sin krona.

3. Tonerna  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
[Tanke]1, vars strider blott natten ser!
Toner hos Eder om vila den ber.
Hjärta, som lider av dagens gny!
Toner till Eder till Er vill det fly.
