Og der gik Dage, og der gik Nætter i Tvil og sygnende Længsel hen; jeg vanked fredløs i dybe Skoge, men aldrig mødtes vi der igjen. Og Solen skinned hver Stund paa Dagen, og Maanen lyste i Natten ned. — o, Sol og Maane og blanke Stjerner. hvor er hun henne, min Kjærlighed!

Es gingen Tage
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Norwegian (Bokmål)
Es gingen Tage, es gingen Nächte In bangem Zweifel und Sehnen hin; Ich wankte friedlos durch tiefe Wälder, Doch nie mehr trafen wir uns darin! Die Sonn' erstrahlte jed' Stund' am Tage, Die Nacht erhellte des Mondes Schein. O, Sonn' und Mond und ihr blanken Sterne, Wo find' ich wieder die Liebe mein?
From the Sinding score.
