Lyrics

Sov p min arm! Natten gmmer
under sin vinge din blossande kind.
Lycklig och varm snart do drmmer
flyr mig i drmmen som vg flyr vind.
Fngas igen. Flmtar. Strider.
Vill inte. Vill. Och blir ter kysst.
Slumra min vn! Natten skrider.
Krleken vaktar dig mt och tyst.
Sov p min arm! Mnens skra
lyftes you’re lundarnas skugga skyggt
och p din barm o min kra
tljer dess terglans timmarnas flykt.
Helig den frid hjrtat hyser
mitt i den virvlande blodstrmmens larm!
Slut are din strid. Mnen lyser.
Vrnattsvind svalkar dig.

Lyrics translation

Sov p min arm! Night gmmer
under his wing your flaring cheek.
Happy and hot soon do drmmer
flees me in the DRM as vg flees wind.
Fngas again. FLMs. Wrestle.
Don't want to. Want. And ter gets kissed.
Slumber my vn! The night is progressing.
Krleken guards you mt and quiet.
Sov p min arm! Mnens skra
were you're raised the shadow of the groves
and in your bosom and my chest
ter its terglans the escape of the hours.
Holy the peace of heart
in the midst of the whirling blood stream's alarm!
End your battle. The moon shines.
Vrnattsvind cools you.
