by Johan Ludvig Runeberg (1804 - 1877)

Rosen bröt du för din glada syster
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Our translations:  FRE GER
Rosen bröt du för din glada syster,
vallmon höll du själv.
Rosen, flicka, tyder liv och kärlek,
vallmon köld och död.
Anar du ej hjärtats fröjder -- eller,
bleka ängel, säg,
äger du vid femton år ett öde
att beteckna re'n?
