Nytaars-Aften 1848

Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)



Farvel, farvel, Du gamle Aar,
Din Bortgangs Skaal vi drikke!
Din Virken dyb alvorlig staaer,
Dig glemmer Verden ikke.
Det nye Aar nu banker paa,
Kom ind! velkommen være!
Du Barn, som endnu Ondt ei saae,
Du Freden til os bære!
 
Fred over Dig, vort Fædreland,
Og dine aabne Strande,
Fred i hvert Hjerte, i hver Stand,
Fred over alle Lande!
Læg Du de Saar, din Broder slog,
Beskjærm os vore Kjære!
Med Hurra og med Dannebrog
Du af os hilset være!
