Über die Welt hin ziehen die Wolken
Language: German (Deutsch)
Über die Welt hin ziehen die Wolken. Grün durch die Wälder fliesst ihr Licht. Herz, vergiss! In stiller Sonne webt linderndster Zauber, unter wehenden Blumen blüht tausend Trost. Vergiss! Vergiss! Aus fernem Grund pfeift, horch, ein Vogel ... Er singt sein Lied. Das Lied vom Glück! Vom Glück.
