by Eduard Mörike (1804 - 1875)

Bei einer Trauung
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE FRE HEB ITA SPA
Vor lauter hochadligen Zeugen
copuliert man ihrer Zwei;
die Orgel hängt voll Geigen,
der Himmel nicht, mein' Treu!

Seht doch, sie weint ja greulich,
er macht ein Gesicht abscheulich!
Denn leider freilich, freilich
keine Lieb' ist nicht dabei.
