Der er et yndigt land

Der er et yndigt land,
det står med brede bøge
nær salten østerstrand
nær salten østerstrand.
Det bugter sig i bakke, dal,
det hedder gamle Danmark,
og det er Frejas sal,
og det er Frejas sal.

There is a lovely country
it stands with broad beeches
near the salty eastern beach
near the salty eastern beach.
It meanders in hill and dale,
it is called old Denmark,
and it is Freja's hall,
and it is Freja's hall.

- Adam Oehlenschläger, 1823
