by Emil Aarestrup (1800 - 1856)
Der er en trolddom på din læbe
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Der er en trolddom på din læbe, Der er en afgrund i dit blik, Der er i lyden af din stemme En drøms ætheriske musik. Der er en klarhed på din pande, Der er et mørke i dit hår, Der er en strøm af blomsterånde Omkring dig hvor du står og går. Der er en skat af evig visdom I smilehullet på din kind, Der er en brønd, en sundhedskilde For alle hjerter i dit sind. Der er en verden i dit indre En sværmerisk, kaotisk vår, Som jeg umulig kan forglemme, Som jeg tilbeder og forstår.
