by Bernhardt Severin Ingemann (1789 - 1862)
Paa Sletten
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Er det Sarons Slette, jeg vandrer paa? Hist Havet heelt mægtigt bruser ⎯ Judæas Bjerge i Øst jeg saae ⎯ Fra Carmel Sydvinden suser. Men Lilliemarken jeg stuer ei ⎯ Her Sarons Roser ei gløde ⎯ Ei dufter paa tulipanskjøn Vei Narcissen iMorgenrode. Paa Sletten gaaer jeg i fremmed Land ; Judæas Bjerge forsvinde ⎯ Mit Carmel flyver fjernt over Strand Med Taagen for Nordens Vinde.
