Stihovi na danskom

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

Der sad i fordums tid de harniskklædte kæmper, udhvilede fra strid Så drog de frem til fjenders mén, nu hvile deres bene bag højens bautasten

Det land endnu er skønt, ti blå sig søen bælter, og løvet står så grønt Og ædle kvinder, skønne mø'r og mænd og raske svende bebo de danskes øer

Hil drot og fædreland! Hil hver en danneborger, som virker, hvad han kan! Vort gamle Danmark skal bestå, så længe bøgen spejler sin top i bølgen blå

Slobodni prijevod na engleski

There is a lovely land with spreading, shady beeches Near Baltic's salty strand Its hills and valleys gently fall, its ancient name is Denmark, And it is Freya's hall

There in the ancient days the armoured Vikings rested Between their bloody frays Then they went forth the foe to face, now found in stone-set barrows, Their final resting place

This land is still as fair, the sea is blue around it, And peace is cherished there Strong men and noble women still uphold their country's honour With faithfulness and skill

Doslovni prijevod na engleski

There is a lovely country it stands with broad beech near the salty eastern beach It winds itself in hill, valley, it is called old Denmark and it is Freja's hall

There sat in former times, the armour-suited giants, rested from confict Then they journeyed forwards to their enemies' injury, now their bones are resting behind the small hill's menhir

That country is still lovely, because the sea waves so blue frolic, and the foliage stands so green And noble women, beautiful maidens, and men and brisk swains inhabit the Danes' islands

Hail king and fatherland! Hail every a townsman, that works, what he can Our old Denmark shall endure, as long the beech reflects its top in the wave so blue
