by Albert Theodor Gellerstedt (1836 - 1914)
Äppelträdets visa
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Kom till min blommande kvist, innan han fägringen mist: vårstund är snart förbi! Kom, liten spelande fink, stänk in i strålande blink välljud och harmoni. Men det skall vara just nu! Tiderna ändras, och du kan ingen visa mer; tiderna ändras, och jag, böjd under frukter en dag, brytes af stormen ner.
