Den öfvergifna

(Sung text for setting by F. Ehrström)

Language: Swedish (Svenska)

Our translations: FRE

Löf och örter och blommor små,
Ljusa liljor med dagg uppå,
Purpur-ros som så vänligt ler,
Jag vill välja till brudkrans er.
Minnesblomma vid böljan klar,
Inga törnen din stängel har.
O, hur liknar dig icke den,
Som gror upp i min barm igen,
Som har taggar på hvarje skott,
Och som sårar mitt hjerta blott.

La désespérée

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Ehrström)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the Swedish (Svenska)

Feuilles, herbes et petites fleurs,
lis lumineux couverts de rosée,
roses pourpres qui rient si aimablement,
je veux vous choisir pour couronne de mariée.
Myosotis auprès de l'onde claire,
ta tige n'a aucune épine.
Ô, comme elles ne te ressemblent pas
celles qui poussent à nouveau dans mon cœur,
qui ont des aiguillons à chaque rejet,
et qui simplement blessent mon cœur.
