Du lader Ingen vide

Du lader Ingen vide, Om du er lykkelig? Men, hvis du skulde lide, Betro det da til mig. Jeg vil din Kummer gynge Som Barnet, der er sygt; Jeg vil den Sange synge, At den kan slumre trygt. Saa roligt skal den hvile Og glemme Taarens Bad; Saa venligt skal den smile Og drømme, den er glad. Thi ak! paa Livets Strande Langs Verdens vilde Strøm Er Smerten kun det Sande, Men Glæden — er en Drøm.
