Lyrics
Out in Our Meadow (Literal Translation)
Out in our meadow, blue berries grow
Come, heart’s delight
If you want something from me, we shall meet there
Come lilies and columbine, come roses and sage
Come sweet garden mint, come, heart’s delight
Fair little flowers there invite us to dance
Come, heart’s delight
If you wish, I’ll weave you a wreath
Come lilies and columbine, come roses and sage
Come sweet garden mint, come, heart’s delight
The wreath I then place gently in your hair
Come, heart’s delight
The sun is setting, but hope is rising
Come lilies and columbine, come roses and sage
Come sweet garden mint, come, heart’s delight
Out in our meadow grow flowers and berries
Come, heart’s delight
But of them all, you are dearest to me here
Come lilies and columbine, come roses and sage
Come sweet garden mint, come, heart’s delight
Swedish:
Uti vår hage där växa blåbär
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Vill du mig någe', så träffas vi där
Kom liljor och akvileja, kom rosor och salivia
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans fröjd
Fagra små blommor där bjuda till dans
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Vill du, så binder jag åt dig en krans
Kom liljor och akvileja, kom rosor och salivia
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans fröjd
Kransen den sätter jag sen i ditt hår
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Solen den dalar, men hoppet uppgår
Kom liljor och akvileja, kom rosor och salivia
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans fröjd
Uti vår hage finns blommor och bär
Kom hjärtans fröjd
Men utav alla är du kärast mig här
Kom liljor och akvileja, kom rosor och salivia
Kom ljuva krusmynta, kom hjärtans fröjd
