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.

Confirmed with Albert Theodor Gellerstedt, Eftersommar, Stockholm Stockholm : P. A. Norstedt & sönders förlag, 1891, p.125
