Som stjärnan uppå himmelen så klar
 (Sung text for setting by H. Alfvén)
 Matches base text
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Som stjärnan uppå himmelen så klar, 
hon längtar till sitt rum, 
så längtar jag till dig, min lilla vän 
var timma och var stund. 

Var timma är som en månad lång 
en månad som ett år 
så längtar jag till dig, min lilla vän, 
fast jag dig aldrig får.

    Set to music by Hugo Alfvén (1872 - 1960), "Som stjärnan uppå himmelen så klar", Rudén no. 210 (1952) [ chorus a cappella ], arrangement of a folk melody
