by Franz Ulbrich (1885 - 1950)

Draußen lockt der Lärm des Lebens
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Draußen lacht der Lärm des Lebens
lachend in mein Einsamsein,
bunter Klang, Du rufst vergebens,
Deinem Spiel mich einzureih'n.

Meine Wege suchen Fernen
abseits deinem Tand und Tanz,
und die Blicke in den Sternen
tast ich nach dem Erntekranz.
