Wind im Gesträuch und Vogelpfiff Und hoch im höchsten süßen Blau Ein stilles, stolzes Wolkenschiff . . . Ich träume von einer blonden Frau, Ich träume von meiner Jugendzeit, Der hohe Himmel blau und weit Ist meiner Sehnsucht Wiege, Darin ich stillgesinnt Und selig warm Mit leisem Summen liege So wie in seiner Mutter Arm Ein Kind.

2. Unterwegs  [sung text checked 1 time]
Spät auf staubiger Straße geh ich, Mauerschatten fallen schräg, Und durch Rebenranken seh ich Mondlicht über Bach und Weg. Lieder, die ich einst gesungen, Stimm ich leise wieder an, Ungezählter Wanderungen Schatten kreuzen meine Bahn. Wind und Schnee und Sonnenhitze Vieler Jahre [klingt]1 mir nach, Sommernacht und blaue Blitze, Sturm und Reiseungemach. Braun gebrannt und vollgesogen Von der Fülle dieser Welt, Fühl ich weiter mich gezogen, Bis mein Pfad ins Dunkle fällt.

3. Beides gilt mir einerlei  [sung text checked 1 time]
Alle meine Jugendzeit Bin ich Lüsten nachgegangen, Um danach voll Düsterkeit Leid und Schmerzen nachzuhangen. Schmerz und Lüste sind mir nun Ganz verschwistert und durchdrungen; Ob sie wohl, ob wehe tun, Beides ist in eins verschlungen. Ob mich Gott durch Höllenschrei, Ob durch Sonnenhimmel führe, Beides gilt mir einerlei, Wenn ich seine Hand nur spüre.

4. Das treibende Blatt  [sung text checked 1 time]
Vor mir her getrieben Weht ein welkes Blatt. Wandern, Jungsein und Lieben Seine Zeit [und sein]1 Ende hat. Das Blatt irrt ohne Gleise Wohin der Wind es will, Hält erst in Wald und Moder still . . . Wohin geht meine Reise?

5. Dorfabend  [sung text checked 1 time]
Der Schäfer mit den Schafen Zieht durch die stillen Gassen ein, Die Häuser wollen schlafen Und dämmern schon und nicken ein. Ich bin in diesen Mauern Der [einzige]1 fremde Mann zur Stund, Es trinkt mein Herz mit Trauern Den Kelch der Sehnsucht bis zum Grund. Wohin der Weg mich führet, Hat überall ein Herd gebrannt; Nur ich hab nie [gespüret]2, Was Heimat ist und Vaterland.

6. Allein  [sung text checked 1 time]
[Es führen über die Erde]1 Straßen und Wege viel, Aber alle haben Dasselbe Ziel. Du kannst reiten und fahren Zu zweien und zu drein, Den letzten Schritt mußt du Gehen allein. Drum ist kein Wissen [Noch]2 Können so gut, Als daß man alles Schwere Alleine tut.

7. Frühling  [sung text checked 1 time]
Wieder schreitet er den braunen Pfad Von den stürmeklaren Berge nieder, Wieder quellen, wo der Schöne naht, Liebe Blumen auf und Vogellieder. Wieder auch verführt er meinen Sinn, Daß in dieser zart erblühten Reine Mir die Erde, deren Gast ich bin, Eigentum und holde Heimat scheine.
