Wohin verklang mein Lied, einst so voll Süße?
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)
Wohin verklang mein Lied, einst so voll Süße? Wohin verklang mein Lied, einst so voll Sehnsucht? Über die lichtgrüne Weide erklang es, Über den blühn'den Pfad von Dorf zu Dorfe; Von Dorf zu Dorf die blühn'den Pfade erklang es... Mein Lied, wohin verklang's? Wohin verhallt' es?
