Uti vår hage
Sara Isaksson Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uti vår hage där växa blå bär
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Vill du mig något så träffas vi där
Kom liljor och aquileja, kom rosor och saliveja
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans kär

Uti vår hage där växa blå bär
Kom hjärtans fröjd

Vill du mig något så träffas vi där
Kom liljor och aquileja, kom rosor och saliveja
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans kär

Fagra små blommor där bjuda till dans
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Vill du så binder jag åt dig en krans
Kom liljor och aquileja, kom rosor och saliveja
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans kär

Kransen sätter jag sen i ditt hår
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Solen den dalar men hoppet upp går
Kom liljor och aquileja, kom rosor och saliveja
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans kär

Uti vår hage finns blommor och bär
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Men utav alla mej kärast du är

Kom liljor och aquileja, kom rosor och saliveja
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans kär.
