Lied eines Schmiedes See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
Fein Rößlein, ich
Beschlage dich,
Sei frisch und fromm,
Und wieder komm!
Trag deinen Herrn
Stets treu dem Stern,
Der seiner Bahn
Hell glänzt voran.
...
Trag auf dem Ritt
Mit jedem Tritt
Den Reiter du
Dem Himmel zu!
Nun Rößlein, ich
Beschlage dich,
Sei frisch und fromm,
Und wieder komm!
