Rautendeleins Lied aus „Die versunkene Glocke“
 (Sung text for setting by C. Faisst)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Weiß nicht, woher ich kommen bin;
Weiß nicht, wohin ich geh:
ob ich ein Waldvöglein bin
oder eine Fee.
Die Blumen, die da quillen,
den Wald mit Ruch erfüllen,
hat einer je vernommen,
woher die sind gekommen?
Aber manchmal fühl' ich ein Brennen:
Möchte so gern Vater und Mutter kennen.
Kann es nicht sein,
füg' ich mich drein.
Bin doch ein schönes, goldhaariges Waldfräulein.

    Set to music by Clara Mathilda Faisst (1872 - 1948), "Rautendeleins Lied aus „Die versunkene Glocke“" [ voice and piano ]
