by Lady Ise (c875 - c938)
Translation by Paul Alfred Enderling (1880 - 1938)

Heimwärts
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Japanese (日本語) 
Die Blumen blüh'n.
Die Felder stehn im Grün
Und dennoch zieht die Wildgans
fort nach Norden.
Ob wohl an ihrer Heimat kalten Borden
Die Blumen schöner blühn?

Die Blumen blüh'n.
