Till Fjalls - Vintersorg
Tradgransens lovsal i brandgul skiftning flammar
Hosten uppvaknar att galda livets lan
Branternas sagosyn min torstiga sjal nu ammar
Nerover ormlikt ringlar sig an
Tungt jag uppfor strava blint i senskymningsblasten
Vid bergvaggar maktiga som en valdig katedral
Nordstormens anderdrakt aterfoder frosten
Dar klipporna bildar den morka tempelsal
Till Fjalls, Till Fjalls dar storm mig fammar
Till Fjalls, Till Fjalls vakad av ramnar
Mot himlabrynet avtecknas fjallets brodrahojder
Snosmyckade toppar likt tinnar och torn
De statar upp mot skyn nar drangsol lyser nojder
I den stiglosa utmark ljuder fullandningens horn
Till Fjalls, Till Fjalls dar storm mig fammar
Till Fjalls, Till Fjalls vakad av ramnar
[English translation:]
In Mountains
The tree border's leaf arcade blazes in orange nuance
Autumn awakens to repay life's loan
The tale sight of the steeps now nurses my thirsty soul
The river curls serpent-like below
Heavily I strive blindly up in the late evening wind
By mighty mountain walls like a huge cathedral
Thhe nortern storm's breath rebirths the frost
Where the cliffs form the dark temple hall
In mountains, in mountains where storm embraces me
In mountains, in mountains watched by ravens
In mountains, in mountains, in mountains, in mountains
The mountains' brother heights stand out against the sky's edge
Snow adorned summits like pinnacles and towers
They state up towards the sky when moon shines content
In the pathless outland sounds the horn of perfection
In mountains, in mountains where storm embraces me
In mountains, in mountains watched by ravens
In mountains, in mountains, in mountains, in mountains
