Frithiofs lycka
 (Sung text for setting by B. Crusell)
 See original
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Our translations:  FRE
Kung Beles söner gerna drage
från dal till dal att be om svärd.
Mitt få de ej; i Balders hage
der är min valplats, är min verld.
Der vill jag ej tillbaka blicka
på kungars hämnd, på jordens sorg,
men endast gudars glädje dricka
tvemännings med min Ingeborg.

Så länge ännu solen tömmer
sin purpurglans på blomstren varm,
lik rosenfärgadt skir, som gömmer
en blomsterverld, min Ingborgs barm:
så länge irrar jag på stranden,
af längtan, evig längtan tärd,
och ritar suckande i sanden
det kära namnet med mitt svärd.

 ...
