  *++Lyrics:|\\
Paa solen jeg ser,\\
Det lider alt frem,\\
Snart ar det ved hømessetide.\\
O, den, som en stund\\
Fik ønske sig hjem\\
Blandt folk,\\
Som paa kirkevej skride!\\
Naar solskiven stiger lidt,\\
Saa den staar der midt\\
Over skaret i kammen,\\
Da ved jeg, i dalen\\
Klokkerne garr,\\
Da ringer fra taarnet\\
Det sammen.\\
\\
Det nytter ej stort\\
At tage sin bog\\
Og synge i hejen sin salme;\\
Mit loft er for højt,\\
Og her er det dog,\\
Som tonerne blegne of falme.\\
O den, som i dag\\
Fik blande sin røst\\
Med hans og de øvriges stemme!\\
Gud give, at snart\\
Det lakked mod høst,\\
Gud give, jeg atter var hjemme!\\

  *++Lyrics:|\\
I look at the sun,\\
It reveals all,\\
Soon it will be time for High Mass.\\
Oh, one, who for a moment\\
Wishes oneself home\\
Among people,\\
Who are going to church!\\
When the sun has risen a bit\\
So it stands right there\\
Over the gap in the crest of the mountain,\\
Then I know, in the valley\\
Church bells are ringing,\\
Then rings from the tower\\
The same.\\
\\
It is of no use\\
To take one's book\\
And sing in the mountains one's psalms;\\
My ceiling is too high,\\
And here it is thus\\
That the tones grow pale and fade.\\
Oh, one, who today\\
Can blend her voice\\
With his* and the heavenly voices.\\
God grant, that soon\\
It draws near to autumn,\\
God grant, I once more will be home!\\
