My love
Inger Hagerup ; Thord Fredenholm


My love came home last night, and there
were sparkling snowflakes in her hair

My love is no longer my own.
Another has her heart alone

My love herself has been beguiled.
She wept last night just like a child,

when in her sleep, close to my ear
she whispered: "Dear, I love you, dear!"




Min elskede
Inger Hagerup


Min elskede kom hjem i går.
med hvite snefnugg i sitt hår

Min elskede er ikke min.
En annen eier hennes sinn.

Min elskede er selv bedratt.
Hun gråt så bitterlig i natt.

i søvne da hun sa til meg:
Min elskede, jeg elsker deg
