Der Westwind streichelt die Locken Schauernder Bäume; wie Schnee Fallen die Blüthenflocken ... Klänge der Abendglocken Zittern über den See. Oben im Wolkenlosen Kreiset der Sterne Lauf; Doch unter Küssen und Kosen Gehen hier unten Rosen, Rosen und Lieder auf.

The west wind caresses the curls Of shivering trees; like snow Fall the blossom petals ... The sounds of the evening bells Tremble over the lake. Up in the cloudless space The stars circle in their courses; But with kisses and caressing, Down here roses, Roses and songs burst into bloom.
