Farvel
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)
Available translation(s): FRE
En svane strög mod syd... Hvad glansfuldt punkt mod himlen i höstens kvæld! Med den flöj drömmevrimlen... "Elskte, farvel! Elskte, farvel!" Så ren som sne på fjeld, du sjæl med vinger hvide! I höstens kvæld nu visne löv blot glide... "Elskte, farvel! Elskte, farvel!"
