Analysis of Georg Carstensen
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Som vildsom Fugl Du flere Gange fløi
Bort fra dit Hjem, fra vore grønne Øer,
Og Blæsten peb og Skramlet gjorde Støi,
Det ferske Hverdags-Liv har slemme Søer.
Nu flyver Du igjen, men mere stærk,
Vi kjende dit Talent, som Du det kjender.
Du viste Villie — og vi see dit Værk,
Et Glædes-Blus her det i Øiet brænder;
Godt er dit Hjerte, Du har Ungdoms Hu,
Hvo svinger Glædens Tryllestav som Du.
