"Årstiderna"
Song

Årstiderna, also known after the opening words Om våren, om våren, is a song written by Alice Tegnér, published in Sjung med oss, mamma!, volume 4 in 1897. Each verse represent the four seasons in the Earth's zones in the order: spring, summer, autumn and winther. Season songs have since the late 19th century been a common theme in children's songbooks, and in 1943 the song was the first song in the Nu ska vi sjunga songbooks.
