My verse in Swedish

When you write du är min bästa kvinna it sounds like you have many women. And that will make the girl you have written this for angry.

You should exchange it to: du är den bästa kvinnan

Thank you very much! But is it possible to write 
Du är min bästa kvinnan?

Like I said: she will Ask if she isn?t your only one.

Can you explain in english what you want to express with those words? Maybe we can help you phrase it so it has the right meaning.

Because as LasseBD explained you are now implying that you have several women and she is the best one of them. Like you would have said "this is my best pair of shoes".

If I may say so, even though it is swedish, it's russian. A swedish poem would be more about longing, a bit more depressive and contain more nature

However, I understand the meaning, it's a very nice poem and I wouln't care too much about the first line. There's a similar expression in english, "you're my best girl"

But sure, it?s grammatically correct..

OK

This is in English

You are my best woman,
You are always in my heart
You are my best memory
You are my greatest pain

I meant that she is the best of all women which I knew.

I would like to ask - is it correct grammatically to say:
"Du är min bästa kvinnan"

Or I have to say:
"Du är min bäst kvinnan"

If the first expression is incorrect and must be replaced to second one then my verse is bad :( because the rhythm becomes to be broken.

"Du är min bästa kvinna" as you wrote it in the beginning is grammaticly correct. Since you really want to say that she is the best woman you've met and the rhythm is important the way it is, then I think you have found the best way to say it for your poem.

Thank you very much for you explanations! I plan to publish a book with my verses in Russian and thought to include this verse also, with translation and transcription. 

Well, maybe Russian women like being pictured as someone's possession... Or maybe they are dating sailors.... En i varje hamn, det vet de om...

I have still a question what phrase is correct:

Du är min bästa kvinna

or

Du är min bästa kvinnan?

Concerning this verse, I would like to explain that this verse is about one women who was in the past with the author, but later she decided to choice another man as a husband. It was many years ago. But the author still remember her and has expressed his sence in the verse. 

Well, kvinna = a woman, kvinnan = that specific woman. 

That's also why your whole poem seems... possessive and creepy.

Taking into account your message, I conclude, that "kvinnan" is better than "kvinna".

Concerning possessive and creepy... I do not think that possessive, but agree that this verse is very sad. When I wrote it, I remember Minnet by Dan Andersson.

And that would be wrong.

The problem is: when you are young - you have not experience and can make wrong decision. But when you meet your first love after many years then both have families and children and nothing could be changed.
