by Tor Hedberg (1862 - 1931)

I drömmen du är mig nära
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
I drömmen du är mig nära,
jag nämner hänryckt ditt namn.
Jag sluter dig ömt, du kära
ut i min längtande famn.

Av stormande fröjd betagen
jag känner mig då ha makt
att säga dig allt, som dagen
i tystnadens bojor lagt.

Min innersta tanke jag röjer,
jag ser i ditt öga in;
din barm invid min sig höjer,
jag söker din mun med min.

O skall, förrän livet förrunnit,
den saliga stund ej slå,
skall högsta lycka, jag funnit,
mig endast i drömmen nå?
