by Iben Nielsen (1878 - 1922)

Sommer
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
O røde Sol, o, gode Sol,
o, stærke, milde, lyse Luft.
O, Sang og Suk om Sol, om Sol,
som skælver i den høje Luft!

O, store Dag med dybe Drag
af Livets gyldne Herlighed,
mod Hjertet gik dit Bølgeslag
og sang til Liv min Kærlighed —

O, Soldag, store, gyldne Dag!

Confirmed with Iben Nielsen, Digte og Vers, Brdr. Salmonson, Copenhagen, 1899, page 59.
