Jeg giver mit Digt til Vaaren
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)
Available translation(s): FRE
Jeg giver mit Digt til Vaaren,
skjøndt endnu den ej er baaren,
jeg giver mit Digt til Vaaren
som Længsler til Længsler lagt.
Saa slutter de to en Pagt --:
at lokke paa Sol med Liste,
saa Vinteren Nød maa friste,
at slippe et Kor af Bække,
saa Sangen ham maa forskrække,
at jage ham ud af Luften
med idelig Blomsterduften, --
jeg giver mit Digt til Vaaren!

J'offre mon poème au printemps
Language: French (Français)  after the Norwegian (Bokmål)
J'offre mon poème au printemps,
bien qu'il ne soit pas encore né,
j'offre mon poème au printemps,
où sont couchées tant d'impatiences.
Ainsi tous deux concluront un pacte :
user de ruse pour attirer le soleil
afin que l'hiver éprouve tant de détresse
laisser échapper un chœur des rivières,
afin que les chansons l'effraient,
le chasser hors des airs d'ici
avec le parfum incessant des fleurs ;
j'offre mon poème au printemps !
