by Franz Ludwig Evarist Alexander, Graf von Pocci (1807 - 1876)

Der Wind
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich bin der Wind 
Und komm' geschwind;
Ich wehe durch den Wald, 
Daß weit es wiederhallt.

Bald säusle ich gelind
Und bin ein sanftes Kind,
Bald braus' ich wie ein Mann,
Den niemand fesseln kann.

Schließt Tür und Fenster zu,
Sonst habt ihr keine Ruh';
Ich bin der Wind
Und komm' geschwind.
