Primula veris See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
I
Liebliche Blume,
bist du so früh schon
wiedergekommen?
Sei mir gegrüsset,
Primula veris!
Leiser denn alle
Blumen der Wiese
hast du geschlummert,
liebliche Blume,
Primula veris!
Dir nur vernehmbar
lockte das erste
Sanfte Geflüster
weckenden Frühlings,
Primula veris!
Mir auch am Herzen
blühte vor Zeiten,
schöner als alle
Blumen der Liebe,
Primula veris!
...
