by Julius Wolff (1834 - 1910)

Zum Gruss
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG
Mit Hand und Herzen Gott zum Gruß,
Ihr lieben Leutchen alle!
Der Spielmann kommt mit leichtem Fuß,
Ob euch ein Lied gefalle.
Die Fiedel streich' ich jederzeit
Und blas' auch auf dem Rohre,
Zum Lautenschlag bin ich bereit
Vor wohlgeneigtem Ohre.

Ich will euch jetzo frisch gewagt
Etliche Stücklein singen,
Und wenn's, Vielwerthen, euch behagt,
Eins nach dem andern bringen.
Denn Lieder und Schanzunen viel
Und Aventiuren weiß ich,
Mein Tagwerk ist Sang, Saitenspiel,
Und Hunold Singuf heiß' ich.
