by (Jakob) Vogel von Glarus (1816 - 1899)

Die Lieder sind mein Leben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Lieder sind mein Leben 
Und machen stets mich jung; 
Mag auch das Herz umweben 
Die tiefste Dämmerung  --  

Sie heben fromm und minnig  
Zur Sonne mich empor 
Und zieh'n vom Herzen innig 
Hinweg den Nebelflor!
