by Thor Næve Lange (1851 - 1915)

Bort fra Lys og Lærkesang gik Søstre tre
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Bort fra Lys og Lærkesang gik Søstre tre,
bort, hvor Skumring falder tyst paa frossen Sne.

Kvad den første: Sov, min Sjæl fra Sorg og Spot;
Kjærlighed og Had paa Jord er Graat i Graat.

Kvad den anden: Gjennem Søvn og Taagespind
gjør en fordums lønlig Lyst mig hed om Kind.

Men den tredje bad: Væk op mig unge Mø;
lær mig først, hvad Elskov er; lad saa mig dø! —
