Salve! is a song written in Latin and Swedish ("Greetings!") by Benedikt Sveinbjarnarson Gröndal.[1] It is published as the 25th song in Songs for the Philologists in 1936.

The song

Salve!

Salve, mi bone frons;
para te, mea frons,
para te circumdari lauro.
Beatissima nox,
vina nunc tibi mox
splendent sane potius auro.

O, du herlige Drik,
du som avled den Skik
apud patres atque parentes,
at med Næven man slog
og var tapper og klog;
erant arma pugnus et dentes
