by Jens Peter Jacobsen (1847 - 1885)

Silkesko over gylden Læst
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Silkesko over gylden Læst! 
Jeg har mig en dejlig Jomfru fæst'! 
Ingen er som hun paa Guds sollyse Jord, 
ikke en eneste en. 
Som Himlen i Syd og som Sneen i Nord 
er hun ren. 
Men der er Jorderigs fryd i min Himmel, 
Og Flammer staar af min Sne. 
Ingen Sommers Rose er rødere, 
end hendes Øje er sort.
