Mein Liebling ist ein Lindenbaum
Language: German (Deutsch)
Mein Liebling ist ein Lindenbaum, Der steht am Strand; Es spielen die Wogen mit leisem Schaum Um den weißen Sand. Und der Lindenduft, der zieht mir hinein Bis ins tiefste Gemüt - Halt still, mein Herze, und gib dich drein - Du hast geblüht!

My beloved is a lime tree
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
My beloved is a lime tree That stands on the shore; The waves with their gentle foam play About the white sands. And the scent of the lime blossoms is drawn into My deepest inner being - Be still, my heart, and accept it - You have bloomed!
