Bröllpsskruden by Wilhelm Peterson-Berger — Lyrics
Kära moder säg, vi sömmar
du den röda skrud?
Moder, Säg vem drömmer bröllopsdrömmar?
Säg, vem skall stå brud?
O, moder, du kära säg vilken vill bära
barinjans huva re'n i sin ungdom.
Säg, vilken som skruden med pärlor så lockar
att hon från sin ljuva barnafrihet går?

About Bröllpsskruden
Wilhelm Peterson-Berger's Bröllopsdrömmar is a Swedish lieder for SATB choir, exploring the poignant theme of a young woman's approaching wedding day. The text, sung in Swedish, captures a daughter's eager questions to her mother about the bridal attire, symbolizing her transition from childhood to womanhood and the dreams associated with marriage. The mother's gentle reply acknowledges the inevitability of fate and the swift passage of time, urging the daughter to embrace her future. This piece offers a tender reflection on a significant life event, allowing the choir to convey both youthful anticipation and the quiet wisdom of experience.
