Analysis of Tilfreds i sit Hjerte og glad i sit Sind
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Tilfreds i sit Hjerte og glad i sit Sind,
Den Rigdom faaer Roserne frem paa din Kind,
Hvad hjelper om Verden for Foden Dig laae
Hvad hjalp om selv Du fik Guldkronen paa,
Naar ikke Hjertet i Glæde kan slaae.
