Vaardag (Åsen, set by C. Sinding) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Upp av krakken! 
Sumarsoli skin i grøne Bakken. 
Jordi heve flenget Helgarplagget paa 
Skogen stend i Lauv so lystelig at sjaa. 
Livet lettnar, 
Vollen turkar seg, og vegen slettmar. 

Kvar ein kagar, 
alltid nokot nytt seg uppedagar.
Nye Blomar spretta fram paa alle Rom; 
Lette Fivreld' yppa seg fraa Blom til Blom; 
Fuglar sviva 
upp med og rundt um Rusti driva.
