by Oscar von Redwitz-Schmölz (1823 - 1891)

Ha! Wär' ich du, mein Falke du
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ha! Wär' ich du, mein Falke du,
Von luft'gen Fittigen getragen!
Ich flög' am Tag der Sonne zu,
Zög' Abends aus zum Streit und Jagen!

Ich wohnt' im steilsten Felsgestein,
Inmitten grüner Wälder Rauschen,
Mit meinem Lieb so ganz allein, --
Und könnte Keiner uns belauschen!
