Trollsjön

(original)
Högt upp bland bergets granar
Där är så mörk en sjö
Och på dess vågor simmar
En näckros, vit som snö
En herdegosse nalkas
Stranden nu med sin stav:
«Den blomman min skall bliva
Jag bryter henne av!»
Han närmar henne sakta
Till sig mot sävkrönt strand
Då höjer sig ur vågen
Med ens en svanvit hand
Den drager blomman neder
Där böljan djupast går:
«Kom, gosse kom!
Jag lär dig
Här vad du ej än förstår!
Sin rot i bottnen gömmer
Den blomman du har kär
Jag bryter av dess stängel
Blott du mig trohet svär
Kom, gosse kom!
Jag lär dig
Här vad du ej än förstår!»
En ångest gossen fattar
Från stranden ilar han;
Men vågens fagra blomma
Ej mer han glömma kan
Han irrar skygg bland bergen
Sin ro hans hjärta mist
Och ingen har förnummit
Var han har stannat sist
(translation)
High up among the mountain spruces
There is such a dark lake
And on its waves swim
A water lily, white as snow
And herdegosse nalkas
The beach now with its rod:
«That flower will be mine
I'm breaking her off! ”
He approaches her slowly
Towards a serrated beach
Then rises from the scales
With even a swan-white hand
It pulls the flower down
Where the wave goes deepest:
«Come, boys come!
I'm teaching you
Here what you do not understand!
Its root in the bottom hides
The flower you are in love with
I break off its stem
Only you swear allegiance to me
Come, boys come!
I'm teaching you
Here's what you do not understand! »
An anxiety the boy grasps
From the shore he hurries;
But the beautiful flower of the wave
No more he can forget
He wanders shyly among the mountains
His peace lost his heart
And no one has heard
Where he has stayed last
