It's my first try to translate a swe poem to eng. Don't know why I did it but here it is.

(Some small changes.)


Under wood anemone and cowslip.

It's lying stars
behind your honey hair
and now wen you'r sleeping in your only summer dress,
under wood anemone and cowslips glorious view
they are gleaming more then ever.






Swedish version (original):

Stjärnor har fastnat
bakom ditt långa honungs hår,
och nu när du sover i din enda sommar klänning.
vid vitsippor och guldvivors sköna barm.
Glimmar de mer en alltid.

This is so sad, so beautiful,

I like them both, cannot read the Swedish one but the punctuation and accent marks are cute. The metaphor of your " only summer dress " is really good.
