Jeg kaldte dig mit lykkebud;
Jeg kaldte dig min stjerne.
Du blev da også, sandt for Gud,
Et lykkebud, der gik gik ud;
En stjerne, ja, et stjerneskud,
Der slukned i det fjerne.

Versi per un album

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the Norwegian (Bokmål)

Ti chiamai: mio portafortuna
Ti chiamai: mia stella 
E tu lo fosti, Dio m`è testimone. 
Là una stella tramonta, 
una stella cadente
Si spegne di lontano.
