Seraferne
 (Sung text for setting by C. Nielsen)
 Matches original text
Language: Danish (Dansk)

Det har Seraferne :
 Seraferne har rullet bort de klare stjerner
 Og folder moerket ned om jordens skuldre,
 Og staenket dug henover dal og hoeje
 Og haengt de gyldne skyer op i Oesten.

 Hver ting er rede, jord og himmel vente,
 Og solen bier blussende bag bjerge
 På vinket fra Gud Faders herskertrone.
Confirmed with J. P. Jacobsen, Udvalgte Digte, Gyldendalske Boghandel, Nordisk Vorlag, Kjøbenhavn og Kristiana, 1919
