by Vilhelm Ekelund (1880 - 1949)

Vandraren
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Här ur mossiga klippans famn uppväller
ren och klar en melodisk källas vatten,
  här ej ofta beträddes
     gräset af människofot.

Aldrig skönare böjda grenar såg jag
sträcka bävande, fina bågar, tyngda
  rikt af daggiga rosors
     välluktberusande mängd.

Källa, du som vakande mildt min sömn beskyddat,
tyst och lätt hänsorlande sakta silvervågen,
  dig beprisade skaldens
     korta melodiska sång.
