by Henrik Herz (1797 - 1870)

Mødet
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Min Hjertenskjær igaar jeg saae,
Med Fjedre smaa om Hatten blaa,
Iblandt en Jomfruskare.
Jeg kom just fra den grønne Lund,
Med Hest og Hund den Aftenstund,
Og alle Fugle sang, sang
Med Stemmer, saa Søde og saa klare.

Den Lærke sig fra Kornet stjal,
Den Nattergal fra Skoven sval,
Og sang til hendes Ære.
Og under en saa sød Musik
I troer, jeg gik forbi med Nik —
O nei, o nei, jeg sang, sang
For hende min Længsel, min Begjære.
