Den stolta Rhen
 (Sung text for setting by T. Rangström)
 See original
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
 ... 

    Den stolta Rhen, som tågar
    förbi små tysta hem,
    vad frågar han, vad frågar
    den stolte efter dem!

    Hans bölja speglar häcken
    och slår mot trappans rand
    och tar sin gärd av bäcken
    och vaggar skum i land.

    Av allt han ser han kastar
    ett vänligt återsken
    men utan vila hastar
    till havs den stolta Rehn.

 ...
