by Andreas Peter Vilhelm Gregersen (1848 - 1929)

Du blå viol, du bly viol
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Du blå viol, du bly viol,
du unge barn af himlens sol,
du billed på min lykke. 
Ret som et kildevæld af duft
du fylder hele vårens luft,
selv næsten skjult i skygge,
- selv næsten skjult i skygge. 

Du dufter ikke fyrig hed,
du pranger ikke stor og bred,
men knoppes i det lave. 
Dog véd jeg ingen duft så fin
så frisk, så rig, så kær som din
du vårens morgengave,
- du vårens morgengave.
