Leise zieht durch mein Gemüth
Liebliches Geläute.
Klinge, kleines Frühlingslied,
Kling' hinaus in's Weite.

Kling' hinaus bis an das Haus,
Wo die Blumen sprießen.
Wenn du eine Rose schaust,
Sag' ich lass' sie grüßen.

Language: English  after the German (Deutsch) 
Soft and gently through my soul
 Sweetest bells are ringing,
Speed you forth, my little song,
 Of springtime blithely singing!

Speed you onward to a house
 Where sweet flowers are fleeting!
If, perchance, a rose you see,
 Say, I send her greeting!
