by Henrik Arnold Wergeland (1808 - 1845)

Aftenbøn
Language: Norwegian (Bokmål) 
Naar jeg lægger mig til Hvile,
Tretten Engle om mig staa;
Tvende ved min Høire smile,
Tvende til min Venstre gaa,
To paa Vagt ved Hovedpuden,
To ved Foden desforuden,
  To mig dække,
  To mig vække,
  En mig viser
Alle Himlens Paradiser.
