Otto Roquette (1824 - 1896)
Language: German (Deutsch)
Neuer Frühling ist gekommen,
Neues Laub und Sonnenschein,
Jedes Ohr hat ihn vernommen,
Jedes Auge saugt ihn ein.
Und das ist ein Blühn und Sprießen,
Waldesduften, Quellenfließen,
Und die Brust wird wieder weit,
Frühling, Frühling, goldne Zeit!
Von den Felsen in die Weite
Fliege hin, mein Frühlingssang,
Ueber Ströme und Gebreite,
Durch Gebirg und Blüthenhang!
Darf nicht wandern, muß ja bleiben,
Ob's mich ziehn auch will und treiben,
Doch so weit mein Himmel blaut
Singen, singen will ich laut!

New spring has come,
New foliage and sunshine,
Every ear has heard it,

Forest scents, flowing of water-springs,
And the bosom expands once more,
Spring, spring, golden time!
From the rocky cliffs into the distance,
Fly forth, my springtime singing,
Over rivers and broad expanses,
Through mountain ranges and blossoming hillsides!
I may not wander, for I must stay,
Though it wishes to draw along and urge me,
But as far as my sky is blue
I shall sing, sing loudly!
