Du sökte en blomma
 och fann en frukt.

Du sökte en källa
 och fann ett hav.

Du sökte en kvinna
 och fann en själ –
 du är besviken.

There is a thing I wonder about the #tvseries #黑色月光 "Dark side of the Moon", broadcast by #Hongkong #TVB

Who is singing the theme song?

I know the lyrics is from the #Finnish poets #edithsodergran poem #TheMoon and it's sung in #Swedish

Anyone have any insight to who the singer is?

POEM OF THE DAY⁠

Days and nights I lay and think
of things that did not happen.
My thirsty soul that once was quenched.
