Älskas

Älskat har jag många, många,
än en ful och än så skön,
unga, gamla, korta, långa,
vilken blev väl sen min lön?

Tvenne feta, resten skrikor,
en Augusta, en Sofi,
två Marior, två Fredrikor
och en Emilie!

by Johan Ludvig Runeberg (1804-1877)

Rakkauksistani

Rakastanut olen monta, monta,
joskus rumaa, joskus kaunista,
nuoria, vanhoja, pätkiä, pitkiä, 
mitä sain palkakseni?

Kaksi lihavaa, loput laihoja luikkuja,
yhden Augustan, yhden Sofin,
kaksi Mariaa, kaksi Fredriikkaa
ja yhden Emilien!
