by Guido (Pieter Theodoor Jozef) Gezelle (1830 - 1899)

O Zielke schaars genomen
 (Sung text for setting by J. Van Nuffel)
 Matches original text
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
o Zielke, schaars gekomen,
en seffens afgenomen,
Gods Englen willekom,
blijft, blijft, den Hemel binnen,
God kennen, God beminnen,
en keert niet wederom!
 
Verlost van rampe en lijden,
blijft eeuwiglijk verblijden,
en wordt nooit biddens moe,
ont wij ook, vrij geleden,
geworsteld en gestreden,
bij u eens komen toe!

Daar zal ons hert genezen,
daar zal het blijdschap wezen,
o zielken, onzen tween;
daar zal u, kind, herwonnen,
ons niemand rooven konnen,
noch van uwe ouders schee'n!
Spelling changes by Van Nuffel: blijft -> blijf
