Analysis of Jeg er som et Vand, som det dybe Vand
Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)
Jeg er som et Vand, som det dybe Vand,
Alt speiler sig klart deri;
Jeg bliver Sydbo i Sydboens Land;
Der smelter alt Snerperi!
Hvor Følelsen rigtig er sund og sand,
Den eier et Fyrværkeri;
Det blusser, det knalder, det gaaer i Brand.
— Reis hjem! — vær streng, som den gamle Mand
Mod Ungdommen! Din er forbi!
