by Peter Johann Willatzen (1824 - 1898)

Frühlingslieder, fliegt zu Thal
Language: German (Deutsch) 
[Frühlingslieder,  fliegt]1 zu Thal 
In dem Hauch des Märzen!  
Grüßet mir viel tausend Mal 
Frische, frohe Herzen!   

Herzen, die noch in der Brust 
Jugendselig schlagen 
Und der süßen Lebenslust 
Nicht [.....] schon sagen.  

Lerchenjubel, Sonnengold  --  
Kann's wohl Schön'res geben? 
Ach, das Leben ist uns hold, 
Hold sind wir dem Leben!
