You can help us modernize! The present website has been online for a very long time and we want to bring it up to date. As of May 6, we are $2,380 away from our goal of $15,000 to fund the project. The fully redesigned site will be better for mobile, easier to read and navigate, and ready for the next decade. Please give today to join dozens of other supporters in making this important overhaul possible!

Des Durstes Erklärung

Language: German (Deutsch) 

Immer schwitzend, immer sitzend:
Fort ist Rock und fort die Litzen!
  Hört! Frau Sonne war verliebt;
Ganz bestimmt ich's weiß:
  Und in mich war sie verliebt,
Drum ward mir so heiß.

Ihres Auges glühend RUnd
  Spähte stets nach mir,
Überall verfolgt sie mich,
  Und nirgends RUh vor ihr!
Schweißes perlen, großen Durst
  Schaffte diese Lieb'.
Als gestillt der Höllenbrand,
  Nichts im Sack mir blieb.
