by Viktor Rydberg (1828 - 1895)

Se hur ängarna klädas i svallande flor
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Se hur ängarna klädas i svallande flor,
hur de silfrade dimmorna skrida förbi!
O, så lyss och förnim då den hviskande kor
utaf tidernas andar, som sväfvar deri!
Och du känner en varsel i bäfvande bröst
af det djupsta, som seklernas hjerta förnam,
hvad af ve och af manande allvar och tröst,
som har sprungit ur siareharporna fram.
