Alt var Dig

Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)

Our translations: FRE

Alt var dig, ja, alt var dig,
Dagens Jubel paa min Vei,
Dagen, da den skyløs hælded,
Dagen, da den brast mot Fjældet.

Aa farvel, du lyse Dag,
som nu segner mat og svag.
Roser, Roser, Roser røde,
skal i Afskedsstunden gløde!

Confirmed with Nils Vogt, Fra vaar til Høst, anden ogede og rettede Udgave, Kristiania, Olaf Norlis Forlag, 1904, p. 33.

Tu étais tout

Language: French (Français) after the Norwegian (Bokmål)

Tu étais tout, oui, tu étais tout,
L'allégresse du jour sur mon chemin,
Quand le jour décline sans nuage,
Quand le jour donne contre les montagnes.

Oh, adieu jour lumineux
Qui tombe maintenant, faible et épuisé.
Roses, roses roses rouges,
Flamboyez à l'heure du départ !
