by Christian Winther (1796 - 1876)

Hvilende,/ Lukkende
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  FRE
Hvilende,
Lukkende
Tæt Dig i Favn,
Smilende,
Sukkende
Henrykt dit Navn,
Kjæler jeg,
Dyssende
Sorgen i Blund,
Stjæler jeg
Kyssende
Liv fra din Mund.
	 
Vinger den
Svævende
Tanke mon faae,
Bringer den
Bævende
Barm til at slaae;
Mødes de
Smægtende
Længseler da,
Nødes de
Nægtende
Blik til et Ja!
