Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: DUT ENG ENG FRE

Von allen Zweigen schwingen
Sich wandernde Vögel empor;
Weit durch die Lüfte klingen
Hört man den Reisechor:
Nach Süden! Nach Süden!
In den ewigen Blumenflor.

Ihr Vöglein singt munter hernieder,
Wir singen lustig hinaus.
Wenn der Lenz kommt, kehren wir wieder,
Wieder in Nest und Haus,
Von Süden! Von Süden!
Jetzt aber hinaus! hinaus!

Naar ‘t zuiden

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Hensel)

Matches original text

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Van alle takken gaan er
Nu trekkende vogels vandoor;
Ver door de ruimte klinken
Hoort men het reizend koor,
Naar ’t zuiden, naar ’t zuiden
Naar de eeuwige bloemenfoor.
 
Jullie
,vogels, zingt monter ten afscheid,
Wij gaan al zingend op reis.
Komt straks de
 lente,
Keren wij weder,
Terug weer naar nest en huis,
Uit ’t zuiden! Nu echter op reis!
