by Edward Bernard Koster (1861 - 1937)

De zon begint zijn dageglans
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
De zon begint zijn dageglans, 
En maakt den mist tot goud,
Die als een luchte stralenkrans 
Bekroont het ernstig woud.

Op d'akker ligt de nevel blank 
Gedonsd als moll'ge sprei,
Het heuvelmeertje grijpt een sprank 
Van zon, en glimoogt blij.

Ik hoor een fijne tonenvlucht, 
Ver, ver, uit wolkbegin;
Ik adem diep de morgenlucht 
Met lange teugen in.
