Jeg vælger mig april
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)
Jeg vælger mig april! i den det gamle falder, i den det ny får fæste. Det volder lidt rabalder, dog fred er ej det bedste, men at man noget vil! Jeg vælger mig april, fordi den stormer, fejer, fordi den smiler, smelter, fordi den evner ejer, fordi den kræfter vælter, i den bli'r somren til!
