by Carel Steven Adama van Scheltema (1877 - 1924)

Polder met jouw witte wegen
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Polder met jouw witte wegen
En jouw sloten aan den kant,
Met jouw wijde, allerzijde
Vredig bloeiend waterland,
Met den droomerigen zegen

Van jouw welig zachte vee,
Voel ik mij jouw ziel genegen,
Deelt zij zich de mijne mee -
Polder, met jou ben 'k verwant
Wij zijn dingen van één land.
