Note: this setting is made up of several separate texts.


Der Kranich ruft kuruh!
Und fliegt dem Süden zu.
Wo Sommer weilt, da hält er Stand,
Da sucht er stets sein Vaterland:
     Kirregorr kuruh!

Was siehst Du an das Laub?
Bald ist es Erd' und Staub.
Was irdisch ist, hat nie Bestand,
Die Sehnsucht sucht ein bessres Land.
     Kirregorr kuruh!

Text Authorship:

  • by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874), "Auf dem Kirchhofe im Herbste"

Was treibt es mich hinaus?
Ade, mein Vaterhaus!
Muss fernhin mit dem Kranich ziehn,
Muss Flur und Wald der Heimath fliehn.
     Kirregorr kuruh!
