Wir beide wollen springen
See original
Es ging ein Wind durch's weite Land,
Drängt Mund an Mund, blies Hand in Hand
Und war als wie ein Singen.
Hat dich und mich zusammgeweht;
Und wenn er jetzt auch stille steht:
Wir Beide wollen springen.

A wind blew through the wide land,
It urges lips to lips, blew hand into hand
And was like a singing.
It has blown you and me together;
And even if it now stands still:
We two, let us leap for joy.
