My springtime

(Sung text translation for setting by H. Marschner)

See original

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

The flowers are blooming once more,
And again the nightingale sings
Its old songs now.
Oh happy is he who still sings and laughs
Because spring has thought of him as well.
