by Franz Bernus (1808 - 1884)
Im Süden
Language: German (Deutsch)
Süße Düfte, Milde Lüfte Freundlich uns umzieh'n, Laue Winde, Die gelinde Unsre Segel bläh'n. Und vom Haine Tönen reine Sanfte Melodie'n, Die bald schwellen Mit den Wellen, Bald vorüberzieh'n. Schöner Süden, Kannst du Frieden In die Seele streu'n? Kannst du geben, Was das Leben Wahrhaft kann erfreu'n?
