by Detlev von Liliencron (1844 - 1909)

Vogel im Busch
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Kleiner Vogel in den Zweigen,
Bleib hübsch sitzen, singe weiter,
Keine Pfeile führ' ich bei mir,
Singe fort, das ist gescheiter.

Bange nicht, ich hör' so gerne
Deine lieben Zwitscherlieder,
Wenn dir linder Frühlingsregen
Leise tropft aufs Graugefieder.

Doch du hebst die flinken Flügel,
Schwingst entsetzt dich in die Gegend,
Schein' ich dir denn so gefährlich,
Ist der Mensch so graunerregend?
