Aftonen
Language: Swedish (Svenska)
Aftonen nalkas, I skuggornas hägn Dalarna svalkas Av pärldaggens regn. Kvällen azuren Med gullstjärnor strör: Hela naturen i vällust nu dör. Fjärilen gungas På törnros barm: Ljuvt hon betungas, Dess vän är så varm. Tyst hon sig gömmer I blommans sköt, Slumrar och drömmer Om allt vad han njöt.
