by Moritz Horn (1814 - 1874)
O sel'ge Zeit, da in der Brust
Language: German (Deutsch)
O sel'ge Zeit, da in der Brust Die Liebe auferblüht, [Da]1 morgenhell das Angesicht In ihrer Wonne glüht, O halte fest die gold'ne Zeit Du Jäger, schmuck und grün, Bald muß ja doch dein schöner Mai Verwelken und verblühn.
R. Schumann sets lines 1-4
