Drøm!
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Our translations: FRE
Bliv, o bliv i dine Drømmes Verden, Hig ej mod Livets virkelige Færd! Det har kun Nats og Middagslysets Farve, Drømmen har ene Morgenrødens Skjær; -- Dør du og har levet, død er du Livets, Aanden vil da søge til Jorden igjen; Dør du som Drømmer, dø da kan du rolig, Hele din Verden med dig blegner hen.
