Ich möchte schweben über Tal und Hügel
 (Sung text for setting by E. Sjögren)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich möchte schweben über Tal und Hügel,
Mit meiner Liebe Leid allein zu sein.

Und nähmest du der Morgenröte Flügel,
Ich holte dich mit meiner Sehnsucht ein.

Die Winde sausen, und die Wipfel rauschen,
Und von den Zweigen klingt das alte Lied,
Dem alle Herzen auf der Erde lauschen,
Daß nie von Leide sich die Liebe schied.
