Och vit som liljeblad
När jag på henne tänker
Så görs mitt hjärta glad
Dess stämma ger en hjärtans tröst
Lik näktergalens blida röst
Så hövisk och så ljuv
Är hon som purpur klar
Gud låt dig aldrig sörja
Men alltid vara glad
Må de få komma samman
Med hjärtans fröjd och gamman
Som längta till varann'
