by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)

Wenn die Vöglein sich gepaart

Our translations:  FRE
Wenn die Vöglein sich gepaart,
dürfen sie gleich nisten,
ohne Sorg', auf welche Art
sie sich werden fristen.

Ach, dass auch der Menschen zwei
also könnten wohnen
wie die Vöglein frank und frei
in den Laubeskronen!

Brauchte mit der Liebsten ja
nur ein kleines Nestchen:
doch kein Nahrungszweig ist nah,
der mir böt ein Ästchen.
