Kornhøst
 (Sung text for setting by P. Okkenhaug)
 Matches base text
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål) 
Vinteren, våren og somren svant hen,
og nu er det tid til å høste igjen.
Nyss gikk vi og drysset vårt såkorn i muld.
Nu luter og lyser det mot oss som guld.

Og alle de aks som av solen er vigd
skal falle for binder, maskiner og sigd.
Kom karer, kom kvinner, så går vi til skur
her ute i himmelhøy høstlig natur!

Rik er den mann som har plogvendt sin jord,
stelt den og passet den slik at det gror.
Jord har vi alle, vårt hjerte er muld.
Og høsten i hjertet er hjertet av guld.

    Set to music by Paul Okkenhaug (1908 - 1975), "Kornhøst", 1971
