Wanderlied
 (Sung text for setting by K. Reissiger)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Was singt das Vöglein kleine
Horch ihm schon lange zu?
Es singt auf Flur und Haine:
Süß ist die Ruh'!
Süß ist die Ruh'!

  Was winkt so still und heiter
Mir dort das Häuschen zu,
Als spräch's: was gehst du weiter,
Süß ist die Ruh',
Süß ist die Ruh'!

  Bin lang' schon auf der Reise
Und geh' noch immer zu,
Doch seufz' ich oftmals leise:
Süß ist die Ruh',
Süß ist die Ruh'!
