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.

Dröm!
Language: Swedish (Svenska) after the Danish (Dansk)
Blif, o blif i dina drömmars rike, trå ej mot lifvets verklighetsbrus det har blott nattens och dagens färger, drömmen har ensam morgonrodnans ljus. Dör du och har lefvat, Död är du lifvets, anden vill söka till jordlifvets stig, Dör du som drömmare, då dör du saligt, hela din verld den bleknar bort med dig!
