The first sister loved the sweet wild strawberries,
the second sister loved the dark red roses,
the third sister loved the wreaths of the dead.
The first sister married,
they say she is happy.
The second sister loved with all her soul,
they say she became unhappy.
The third sister became a saint,
they say she will win the crown of everlasting life.
Edith Sodergran "Tre Systrar"
