by (Karl) Wilhelm Osterwald (1820 - 1887)

Und die Rosen die prangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Und die Rosen die prangen,
  [Darüber hin]1 fährt der Wind,
Und die Lust ist vergangen,
  Fast eh sie beginnt.

Und die Vöglein die singen,
  Und die Luft die verweht's,
Durch die Welt geht ein [Klingen]2,
  Und Keiner versteht's.

Und die Sterne die scheinen
  So [schön in]3 die Nacht,
Ich aber [möcht]4 weinen
  Inmitten der Pracht.
