Aa Kyri mi vene, aa Kyri mi!
Her sviv me no glade um Sumars Tid;
i Fjelle finn me dei finaste Straa;
i Dalen strøymer den stride Aa.
Og Vinden stryker so ljuv og linn
som signande Sus fraa den klaare Tind.

 ... 

Aa Kyri mi vene, aa Kyri mi!
Drøym godt um meg og den grøne Li!
Der sullar me sæle den Sumar lang;
til Hausten skal me paa Heimevang.
Daa kjem du til Gards som ei Dronning du,
og alle ropar: aa nei, for Ku!
