by Julius Mosen (1803 - 1867)

In dem Walde liegt mein Reich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
[In dem]1 Walde liegt mein Reich,
Unter Tannen steht mein Pfuhl;
Grünes Moos ist gar so weich,
Grüner Wald ist gar so kühl!

Vögel singen auf mich ein,
Rehe ziehen ruhig hin,
Alle möchten bei mir sein,
Da ich doch ein König bin.
