I Skoven vipper de Fugle smaa
blandt Blomster og Blade og Stilke,
og nogle er røde og nogle er blaa
og nogle som Fløjel og Silke.
Kom Purpurfugl ! Kom [himmelblaa]1 Fugl !
Kom snehvide Fugl fra dit Blomsterskjul !
Hyss ! [Hører du]2 den nydelige Sang,
som Bierne synger i Solskinnet !

Chanson de l'oiseleur
Language: French (Français)  after the Danish (Dansk)
Les petits oiseau se balancent dans la forêt
parmi les feuilles et les herbes,
certains sont rouges et certains sont bleus
certains sont de velours et d'autres de soie.
Viens, oiseau pourpre ! Viens oiseau bleu [ciel]1 !
Viens oiseau blanc comme neige de ton abri de fleurs !
Chut ! [Entends-tu]2 le chant nouveau
que chantent les abeilles au soleil !
