Die Störche
 (Sung text for setting by G. Graben-Hoffmann)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Fort, fort, fort und fort
an einen andern Ort
Nun ist vorbei die Sommerzeit
drum sind wir Störche jetzt bereit
von einem Land zu andern
zu wandern.

 ... 

Du, du, du und du,
Leb wohl, mein schöner Teich!
Du hast an deinen Ufern oft
Verlieh'n, was unser Herz gehofft.
Dein denken wir von ferne
Von ferne.

Ihr, ihr, ihr und ihr,
Ihr Bäume lebet wohl!
Ihr gabt zur Herberg' euer Dach
Und schütztet uns vor Ungemach:
Drum sei euch Glück und Frieden
Beschieden.

 ...
