Poem by Joanna Svensson
WHEN TWILIGHT SWEEPS THE DAY
When twilight begins sweeping the day
In its soft and caring arms
When evening blends in all its colors
On the horizon of heaven
Then I feel great gratitude
That such a lovely day it became
Such a lovely day
that was to be mine forever
For ever together with you
When twilight sweeps the day
In its calm and gentle arms
Then I feel great gratitude
For life – what it may give
Everything expensive costs nothing
Your time, your love, your respect
With all this you have blessed me
When my life has turned to fall
When twilight sweeps the day
In its soft and caring arms
Then I feel strongly
That I am yours forever
Forever
Til my last breath
