Spring song

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Mendelssohn)

See original

Language: English after the Bavarian (Boarisch)

Now spring is coming and the sky is blue;
the paths are dry, the air has grown mild.

 ... 

Now spring is coming, and the birds in the wood
are twittering and courting already.

Now spring is coming, and the trees are blossoming,
and I'm bringing my darling a little bouquet.

Note: the text above is taken from stanzas 1,3-4 of the original text.
