by Christen Henriksen Pram (1756 - 1821)

Hvorfor bæver så min Stemme?
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Hvorfor bæver så min Stemme? 
Strenge, hvorfor bæve I, 
Da min Elskte skal fornemme 
Eders elskte Harmonie? 
Hvorfor bæver så min Stemme?  
Strenge, hvorfor bæve I?  

Er mit Bryst ej syldt med Glæde?
Hvorfor zittrer Glædens Lyd? 
Stræber det ej at udbrede, 
At meddele ham sin Fryd? 
Er mit Bryst ej syldt med Glæde?
Hvorfor zittrer Glædens Lyd?  

Bæver, bæver kun I Strenge! 
Han forståer sin Elsktes Røst. 
Let skal den sig gjennemtrænge, 
Smelte, sylde ham med Lyst. 
Bæver, bæver kun I Strenge! 
Han forståer sin Elsktes Røst.
