Analysis of Hvor Himlen har Stjerner! jeg kjender jo hver
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Hvor Himlen har Stjerner! jeg kjender jo hver,
De hjemlige Venner, hvor funkle de her!
De sende en Luftning saa frisk og saa mild,
En Lædskedrik i den brændende Ild,
Et Vindpust over det glødende Sand,
Det er som et Kys fra det danske Land!
