P Colla Bellas hjd, dr geten skuttar
och glesa furor skugga ginst och sand
dr finns en grn oas, en ng, som sluttar
ner mot en vindal och en palmkldd strand.
Dr ser man Corsica i siktigt vder
och Provencalska bergens bla brd.
Dr doftar kaprifolium och flder,
dr kan man vandra ostrd utan klder;
lngt ner i dalen ligger nrmsta grd.
Dr kom jag glad och naken mittp dagen,
en pilgrim frn det fjrran Gteborg.
Jag bar en krans av fikonlv kring magen
och ost och brd och lantvin i en korg.
Det var en hrlig dag, jag hade turen
att hra nktergalens ljuva rst.
Jag knde mig som fgeln slppt ur buren,
jag var p vg tillbaka till naturen,
jag ville vila mig vid jordens brst.
Ja, dr gick getterna och dr gick fren
som vita moln p ngens klorofyll,
och nktergalen sjng i bjrnbrssnren,
och sjlv var jag en del av min idyll.
Jag gjorde utav fikonlv en bricka,
och lade upp min mat, drog upp mitt vin.
Jag satte mig i grset fr att dricka.
D fick jag pltsligt se en naken flicka,
som kom emot mig med en glttig min.
Jag har d aldrig nnsin sett p maken!
Hon kom och stllde sig helt ttt intill
men innan jag hann tnka rtt p saken
s fick jag pltsligt se tv flickor till.
De skrattade och jazzade p ngen
och sjng : Oh, happy days are here again!
Sen hgg de mej och ropte: Opp ur sngen!
Jag tappa mina fikonlv i svngen,
och flickorna frsvann bland skogens trn.
P aftonen nr jag kom ned till staden,
d mtte jag dem ter alla tre
i vita klnningar p promenaden,
de sknaste tre gracer man kan se.
Den ena tog mej genast kckt i handen
och sa : Im leaving on an early train.
Dr gick vi under palmerna p stranden
och pratade och ritade i sanden
och sjng : Oh, happy days are here
