by Johann Gustav Droysen (1808 - 1884)

Im Frühling
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG
Ihr frühlingstrunknen Blumen,
Ihr Bäume, monddurchblinket!
Ihr könnt nichts sagen und seid stumm,
Wie süß ihr schwelgt und trinket!

Ich trink und schwelge mit euch
Und sing's in heller Frühlingslust.
O, wie mir Aug und Wange glüht!
Sie hebt und sehnt sich meiner Brust!

Du sehnsuchtleuchtend Mondlicht,
Ihr friedlich hellen Sterne
Blickt zu den Blumen still herab.
Euch bleibt der Frühling ferne.

Mir blüht und glüht die Rose
Und mir die frische Frühlingspracht!
All meine Träume sind erfüllt,
Nun ist dem Herzen Ruh gebracht.
