Hoe schoon de morgendauw

Hoe schoon de morgendauw,
hoe schoon de versche blommen,
hoe schoon de zonnestraal,
die door dien dreupel beeft;
hoe schoon moet ginder zijn
dat hier wij schoonheid nommen,
en dat maar eenen glim
van de Opperschoonheid heeft!

by Guido (Pieter Theodoor Jozef) Gezelle (1830-1899) , no title, 1858
