Den Forladte (Hauch, set by A. Backer-Grøndahl) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


De Bølger de skylle, de skylle mod Land,
Under Lide,
De Tanker de færdes saavidt over Vand,
Mig tvinger den lønlige Qvide.
 
Paa Bjerget der brænder, der brænder et Baal
Under Lide,
At skilles fra sin Ven, er den beskeste Skaal,
Mig tvinger den lønlige Qvide.
 
Ak vidste, ja vidste jeg, hvor nu han mon gaae
Under Lide,
Hvo Kjærlighed ei kjender, han kan mig ei forstaae,
Mig tvinger den lønlige Qvide.
