by Caroline Margrethe Georgine Recke (1833 - 1901)

Sjælland, Sjælland med skov og med sø
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Sjælland, Sjælland med skov og med sø! 
dejlige ø, her vil jeg dø! 
Fyn, mit Fyn, med dit bælt og din bugt,
prangende smukt med frugt! 

Jylland, Jylland, hvor kronjyden bor,
åen sig snor, lyngen den gror! 
Slesvig, du, som mod syd er vort skjold,
kæmpe, så bold en vold! 

Trods de sorger, du hjertet har bragt,
kærligheds pagt voksed i magt,
frihedstræet, her skyggende står,
en gang, jeg spår, dig når! 

Tusind år har vel rynker os voldt,
Danmark dog stolt, kækt du dig holdt! 
Ja, så længe som bølgerne gå,
Danmark, du må bestå!
