by Sigurður Sigurðsson frá Arnarholti (1879 - 1939)

Sefur sól hjá Ægi
Language: Icelandic (Íslenska) 
Sefur sól hjá Ægi,
sígur höfgi yfir brá,
einu ljúflings lagi
ljóðar fugl og aldan blá.
Þögla nótt í þínum örmum
þar er rótt og hvíld í hörmum,
þar er rótt og hvíld í hörmum,
hvíldir öllum, öllum oss

Hljóða nótt ég halla höfði
þreyttu' að barmi þér
strjúk þú hlýrri hendi
hægt og rótt um vanga mér.
Lát þú sæta svefnrödd óma
syng oss þína töfrahljóma,
syng oss þína töfrahljóma,
færðu öllum hvíld og frið.
