by Waldemar Weinheimer

Kaum wag ich, dieses süsse Klingen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Kaum wag ich, dieses süsse Klingen,
Du klangumrauschter Maientag,
Zu deiner holden Feier darzubringen
Und dir mit freudgefüllter Brust zu singen,
Was ich in meinem Herzen trag'.

Mit schönen, frommen, trauten Weisen,
Du sonnbeglänzter Maientag,
Soll mein Gesang dir seinen Dank erweisen,
Das Glück der Liebe allerorten preisen,
Wann immer man es hören mag.
