by Guido (Pieter Theodoor Jozef) Gezelle (1830 - 1899)
Hei da lieve dreupel water
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)
Hei da, lieve dreupel water, zijt gij helder toch en schoon, in uw hemelsch lichtgeschater en uw diamanten kroon! Rood en blauw en groen en geluw, peersch en purperwendigheid siert, in onderling gespeel, uw pinkelende uitwendigheid! Hei da, heldere lichtkrystalle, diamanten waterding, moet ge op de aarde nedervallen uit is 't met uw flonkering! Neen en daalt niet, och en daalt niet, aardsche grond is al te vuil, houdt u ver van hier, en valt niet: houdt u in den hemel schuil.
