by Per Daniel Amadeus Atterbom (1790 - 1855)

Svanvits sång
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Stilla, o stilla!
Somna från storm och snö!
Ensliga lilla,
nu är det tid att dö!
Kallt är kring dal och sjö;
stilla, o stilla!

Skuggan låt gömma
allt, vad du njöt och led;
glömma, o glömma
sådan är solens sed!
Lär dig, i nattens fred,
glömma, o glömma!

Tystna då, tystna,
töm i en suck din själ!
Upphör att lyssna;
livet dig bjöd farväl:
”Arma, god natt, sov väl!”
Tystna då, tystna!
