by Anders Hovden (1860 - 1943)

Morgonsong
Language: Norwegian (Nynorsk) 
No blinkar Doggi mot Solasprett,
og unge Augo mot Dagen stirer.
Vaar Hug er Björki, der Fuglen smett
med Leik i Lauvet, som braar og bankar.
Og Hjarta bankar, 
og ore Tankar
dei lettar Ankar 
med kvite Segl.

Det er vel hugsamt i Ungdoms Aar
aa gaa til Arbeid med Lyst og Glede;
naar Jordi jublar av Von og Vaar
og ligger lagleg for Plog og Sæde 
og Blomen breider 
seg alle Leider, 
og Livet reider 
sin Rikdom ut!

Og Himlen sender si Signing ned,
so Mod og Evna med Yrket stiger,
ei Livsens Baara oss förer med 
og berer Verket vaart fram til Siger.
Me saar med Möda,
men fager Gröda
me inn i Löda
skal faa i Haust.
