Nu går jag tyst och drömmer om alla unga hjärtans vår. Vem vet vad skogen gömmer bland solskensvita snår. Nu spelar min längtan i vindens sus till skogarnas mummel och älvens brus. All gammal sorg jag glömmer i kvällens bleka ljus. Vem kan gå tung och bitter i vårens glans på skogens stig; som sång och fågelkvitter all världen spelar om dig. Kom, följ mig mot vårkvällens solnedgång, där tystnaden väntar oss trolsk och lång och älvens röda glitter dör bort i böljornas sång.
