Yiais sang I
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Du siger, at mine Øjne 
straaler og lyser som Perler; 
Ak, Elskede, det er Taarer, 
der glimter i Maanelyset. 

Du siger, det er som Blomster 
dufter derude i Natten. 
Ak, Elskede, det er Drømme, 
der lever, naar Du synger. 

Ser Du da ikke, at Blomsterne 
og Jorden er dekket med Sne? 
Ak, Elskede, frygter Du ikke, 
hvad Døden vil bringe Dig?
