by Hans Christian Andersen (1805 - 1875)
Alt farer hen som Vinden
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Alt farer hen som Vinden, Her er ei blivende Sted. Snart svinder Rosen paa Kinden, Smilet og - Taarerne med. Hvorfor være bedrøvet, Hen farer Sorg og Fortræd, Alt farer hen, som Løvet, Tiden og Mennesket med. Alt er Forsvinden -Forsvinden, Ungdom, dit Haab og din Ven! Alt farer hen som Vinden, Og kommer aldrig igjen.
