lyrics

Þær búa hér þúsund við blávatnsstrendur
sem brúðir geislunum rétta hendur.
Bál af haustlitum brennur hátt,
blærinn í skógarhöll týnir átt.
Rósir – síðsumars rósir.

Kyrrðin döggina björtu ber
frá bláum himni í faðmi sér;
að baki rósir – í rökkri þær anga
með rauða, gula og hvíta vanga,
rósir – skógdjúpsins rósir

Við göngum í visnuðu laufi lengi,
í lognblíðu ekkert er sagt;
það er eins og himinkyrr aftanstundin
okkur hafi í draumfjötra lagt.
Skógarrökkur í augum þér er,
angan deyfandi þögnin mér ber.
Rósir, rósir, rósir.

Hulda
