Zaslech jsem divoké husy

Domov je tam, daleko, daleko, daleko tam, daleko tam,
mělo bys domů, zbloudilé srdce! Daleko tam domov, domov.
Za cizí noci, v podzimním dešti, když nejvíc studil
smutku chladný van: ve vysokém domě svém
zaslechl jsem křik divokých husí: právě přilétly.
Domov je daleko tam.

by Bohumil Mathesius (1888-1952)
