Hon föddes i kostern på väg in mot land, liten och tunn i bränningens kittel. Stormarna hälsade henne till livet, men moderns själ bar de till himlen. Och klockorna sjöng i Dyrö församling. De ringde för fyrvaktarns dotter.
She was born in the koster on the way to land, small and thin in the cauldron of the surf. The storms greeted her to life, but her mother's soul they bore to heaven. And the bells sang in Dyrö parish. They were ringing for the lighthouse keeper's daughter.
