by Jens Peter Jacobsen (1847 - 1885)

Evig og uden Forandring
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  FRE
Evig og uden Forandring
Er kun det Tomme.
Alt, hvad der var og der er
Og hvad der skal komme,
Vækkes, spirer og fødes,
Skifter, ældes og dødes.
	 
Kloder have vandret
Hvor Kloder nu vandre,
En Gang i Tiderne
Kommer der andre.
Hvad der er Livets maa gaa og komme,
Evig er ene Rummet det tomme.
