5 6 6 6 6 -6 -6 -6
I am waiting by my bonfire
-6 6 6 6 5 4 4
while the hours pass,
4-4 5 5 5 -5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
while the stars wander and the nights pass by.
8 8 8 8 -8 -8 -8-7 -7 7 6 6
I am waiting for a woman from far away,
5 -5 -5 -5 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 4 -3 4
the dearest, the dearest wi--th blue eyes.
I imagined a wandering,
snow-covered flower
and dreamed of a trembling elusive laugh.
I thought I saw my beloved coming
through the woods, over the moors on a snowy night.
Gladly would I carry my dream girl in my hands,
through the brushes over to where my cabin is,
and raise a jubilant cry toward my dear,
"Welcome you who has been expected for lonesome years."
I am waiting by my charcoal kiln
while the hours pass,
while the woods sing and the clouds drift.
I am waiting for a wandering woman from
far away --
the dearest, the dearest with blue eyes.
Dan Andersson, Swedish Poet (1888-1920) He died young accidently in
his hotelroom. The room had been sprayed with toxic against bugs the
day before....A sad but true story. |
