by Franz Alfred Muth (1839 - 1890)

Über die Haide bin ich gegangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Über die Haide bin ich gegangen,
Stürmisch wehte der Märzenwind,
Aber ein Blümlein fand ich prangen,
Ein gar liebliches Frühlingskind.

  Weiße Glöckchen so duftigmilde
Haben mich sinnig angelacht;
Ach, wer hat an öde Gefilde,
Wer an den Märzenwind gedacht!

  Sprich mir nicht von Weh und Winden,
Die so stürmisch im Leben weh'n!
Willst du suchen, so wirst du finden
Lieblichblühende Blumen steh'n!
