Leit etter livet og liv det!

Leit etter livet og liv det!
Femn det i fullaste fagnad og tru.
Livet livnar og lukka gror,
naar kjærleik kysser kjærleik igjen,
naar evigt ungt yngjar sjæli!
Leit etter livet og liv det!

by Lars Eskeland (1867-1942)

Liebe das Leben!

Liebe das Leben und leb' es!
Fang' es im Fluge und halt' es umfasst.
Leben leuchtet, es lacht die Lust,
Die Liebe koset und küsst Dich gesund
Und ewig jung macht die Jugend!
Liebe das Leben und leb' es!
