from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Ich wollt zu Land ausreisen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich wollt zu Land ausreisen
Ich zog durch einen Wald
Ich hört' in schönen Weisen
Die Vöglein jung und alt
Den Schöpfer lieblich loben.
Ich freute mich gar sehr,
Ich ward von ihn'n bewogen
Zu preisen Gott viel mehr.

Groß Freud' in meinem Herzen
Durch dieses ich empfand;
Gar bald verging mein Schmerzen
Und alles Leid verschwand.
Ich ging hindurch spazieren
Mit frischem freiem Mut,
Mit Sang und Jubilieren
Zu ehr'n den treuen Gott.
