Liljekonvalje
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Du hvita liljekonvalje, som djupast i skogen står, jag ville min visa vore en susning i trädens snår. Jag ville min varma andning var aftonens svala vind, som vaggar din veka stängel och smeker din hvita kind. Jag ville du ensam visste hvad aldrig jag säga förmår, du drömmarnes hvita konvalje, som sjunger om sol, om sol och vår!
