agree with jarhaas. "favn" is a quite dfficult word to translate into English. Think it would be difficult to find another word to express the meaning of this Danish word.

Hum... well, then I think instead of "sit in" we could use "lean on", what do you think?

That would be changing the meaning too much to my taste, maybe someone else thinks otherwise. Gamine?

Agree with jairhaas. Not the same meaning. But what about: "don't have anybody's arms to snuggle in" instead of: "who do not have a bosom to sit in.

I'd translate it to something like this: "..who do not have arms to hold them."
(I know it´s not a literal translation, but I personally think it works better this way)

I suggest:
"I hear feet that walk.
They belong to children,
who do not have a lap to sit on."
