by Charles XV, King of Sweden and Norway (1826 - 1872)
Natten
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)
Månen blickar fram ur skyn, speglar sig i vattnets bryn på den lugna viken. Milda skära toners ljud växa hemligt gå som bud genom nattens riken. Lyssna! underbara ord till den nattomhöljda jord nu melodiskt susa! Af en okänd frid som rar, hjertat, som är tröttadt, far mystiskt sig berusa.
