Carl Michael Bellman

Bofinken nyss, nyss, Cajsa Lisa,
slumrande slöt sin kvittrande visa.
Solen nyss slocknat
och fästet har tjocknat,
enslighetens tystnad rår;
jag till Fröjas dyrkan går.
Regnet nedöst i bullrande låga,
välver i skyn sin brandgula båga,
som randas lugnt och skönt
av purpur, guld och grönt,
sen jorden Jofurs åska rönt.

I read it in swedish

Why would you avoid swedish translations, anon? They're generally no worse than english ones, sometimes better. This is true especially for Hans Björkegren and Staffan Dahls translations of Dostoevsky; both are nothing short of excellent, and were often done with russian experts acting as advisors.

>Swedish and the nordic languages in general sound cute and goofy to my ear.
Thank you, anon

I'm swedish but find my own language to be the most comfy, I dunno if it's cheating, but I find it has an awkward honesty that atleast english lacks

Probably applying for Uppsala University next year, heading for medicine.

Not that anyone here has the slightest clue what uni that is.
