by Thor Næve Lange (1851 - 1915)

Gaar jeg sent ved Aftentide
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Gaar jeg sent ved Aftentide
langs den sølvblaa Pilehæk,
vandre stille ved min Side
dine kjendte kjære Træk.

Mon din hvide Kjole vifter?
er dit blide Smil mig nær?
eller faldt fra Skyens Rifter
kun det milde Maaneskjær?

Er de Taarer mine egne,
der i Duggen trilled ned?
eller græder alle Vegne
for mig Du, min Kjærlighed?
