Analysis of Romanze
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Vi saae hinanden efter mange Aar,
Jeg saae i Dybet, da jeg saae i Øiet;
Min Tanke aldrig hun at vide faaer -
Jeg hilsed hende, — hver var saa fornøiet;
I Skoven.
Det var et kort Minut, og dog saa rigt,
En Duft af Blomster strømmed mig imøde,
Jeg husked paa en Sang — et Ungdoms Digt,
Jeg nynner den — og mine Kinder gløde -
I Skoven.
