Ein Vaartankje
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)
Naar Vaaren leikad borti Bjørkelid, Naar Blomen oppnad Augat sitt so blid, Naar Fuglen kvittrad paa fi grønne Grein, Og Soli glad paa heile Leikjen skjein, -- Daa bars det fyr meg som i fager Draum Med Song og Leik i livands Tonestraum: Her maa det vera, -- her paa denna Jord, -- Naar ho af Herren eingong verdt forklaarad', -- Att me skaa njota ævleg Gleda stor, Att me skaa ævleg lykkelege vara!
