Hedningarna - T

Dagen gr emot ett avsked
hll skiljevg fr oss
Sovandes mellan hnder
s drjer livet kvar

Sorgen r en ensam fgel
som slumrar dr du bor
den drjer nnu kvar i porten
men r nrmare n du tror

Dden den frhller sig s lng
till livet som s kort
Srjer fr att brja resan
ensam lngre bort

==English translation==

Day wears to a farewell, dearest,
Our ways go soon apart.
Life that in my hands yet slumbers
Will presently depart

Sorrow is a lonesome bluebird
That slumbers where you live,
Lingering yet at your gate,
Closer than you would believe.

Death's so dreary and so lasting,
Life is but so brief,
Sad to start alone the journey,
It fills your heart with grief.
