Kvällsvisa
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Stundar nattens blida fall, går en dynings drömska svall trött i sorl mot stranden. Står en stjärna öfver våg, bärs en dröm i drömmars tåg stilla öfver landen. Stjärnan darrar blek och klar, allt som sårat allt som skar sjönk i djupens strömmar. Öfver haf och öfver land spinner minnets tysta hand ljusa barndomsdrömmar.

Abendlied
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Swedish (Svenska)
Träumend sinkt die stille Nacht, alle Wellen wiegen sacht, lind und müd am Strande. Über Fluten zieht der Stern, Alte Träume wachen fern. Dämmernd ruhn die Lande. Alle Sterne zittern weit. Altes Weh und junges Leid fliehn wie Wellenschäume. Über Meer und über Land webt der Sehnsucht milde Hand lichte Jugendträume.
