Sippan

Available translation(s): FIN FRE GER
Sippa, vårens första blomma,
Om jag bröt dig, om jag gaf dig
Åt den älskade, den kalla!
Bröt jag dig, jag skulle ge dig,
Gaf jag dig, jag skulle säga:
"Nära drifvans kant, o flicka,
Växte vårens första blomma,
Som vid isen af ditt hjerta
Blommar upp min trogna kärlek,
Bäfvande för vinterkylan,
Men ej qväfd af den, ej skördad."

Anémone
Language: French (Français)  after the Swedish (Svenska)
Anémone, première fleur du printemps,
Que je te cueille, que je te donne
À celle que j'aime, à celle qui est froide !
Si je te cueillais, je devrais te donner,
Si je te donnais, je devrais dire :
« Près du bord de la congère, ô fille,
Pousse la première fleur du printemps,
Comme à côté de la glace de ton cœur,
Fleurit mon amour fidèle,
Tremblant dans la froidure de l'hiver,
Mais ni étouffé, ni coupé. »
