by Albert Sergel (1876 - 1946)

Komm, gib mir die Hand
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FIN
Komm, gib mir die Hand, 
   auf blühenden Wegen 
gehn wir dem Glück entgegen, 
   wie Kinder im Märchenland. 

   Weiter, immer weiter . .

Bis über uns die Sterne stehn, 
   bis der Abendwind 
uns [einholt]1 über die Heide 
und Märchenschleier uns umwehn 
   von zarter dunkler Seide . . .
