by Esaias Tegnér (1782 - 1846)

Lofsång
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Sol som från mig flytt
öfver bergens topp
Lyfter du på nytt
Strålig hjesa upp.

Jag vill bedja
Med de myriader
Hör mig sångens
Hör mig ljusets Fader!

Tag mig med i skyn
På din himmelsfärd
Öppna för min syn
Diktens sköna verld

Låt dess gudabilder i det höga 
Sväfva klara för ett dödligt öga

Sol som från mif flytt
Övfer bergens topp
Lyfter du pånytt
Strålig hjessa upp

Jag vill bedja
Med de myriader
Hör mig sångens
Hör mig ljusets, O, Fader!
