Hvita, hvita liljorna dofta
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Hvita, hvita liljorna dofta; lundali och lej! Dofta ock de hvita konvaljer. Hvitare är ditt sinn, drömda bruden min, hvitare än liljor och konvaljer. Gula, gula rosorna blomma; lundali och lej! blomma ock de gyllene stjärnor. Renare än allt guld, strålar du utan skuld, klarare än alla gyllne stjärnor. Hög, höga himmelen blånar; lundali och lej! Blånar ock det djupa hafvet. Högre blånar din stig, aldrig hinner jag dig, fjärran, fjärran, bortom djupa hafvet.
