Aus Wolken kommt die frohe Stunde
Language: German (Deutsch)
Aus Wolken [kommt]1 die frohe Stunde, O Mensch, gesunde! Lass Leiden [seyn]2 und Bangigkeit, Wenn Liebchens Kuss dein Herz erfreut. In Küssen weht ein Zaubersegen, Drum sey verwegen, Was [schadet's]3, wenn der Donner rollt, Wenn nur der rothe Mund nicht schmollt.
