Ved Botanikeren Liebmanns Afreise til Mexico 1840

Hans Christian Andersen 1805 (Odense) – 1875 (Copenhagen)



Naar Du nu om ikke længe
Staaer i Mexico,
„Danmark deiligst Vang og Vænge"
I din Tanke boe!
Tropisk Farve-Pragt Du finder,
Dog i Hjertet lever Minder,
Ei Du vil derude glemme
Kløverblomsten hjemme!
 
Videnskaben Guld Du hente
I Amerika!
Ja med slige Skatte vente
Vi Dig hjem derfra.
Danmarks Søn, gjør Danmark Ære,
Blomst og Træ dit Navn maa bære!
Kraftig Villie, Tro paa Himlen
Følge Dig i Vrimlen!
 
Ja med den vor Tanke følger
Dig til fjerne Strand,
Over Oceanets Bølger
Fra dit Fædreland.
Eengang i den danske Sommer
Naar Du atter til os kommer,
Hvilken Jubel vil der være!
Gud med Dig, Du kjære!
