by Franz Alfred Muth (1839 - 1890)

Sonntagsstille in der Weite
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Sonntagsstille in der Weite,
Goldensonn'ger Morgenduft,
Blumenhauch auf grüner Haide,
Sonntagshimmel, Sonntagsluft.
Auf den Bergen, in dem Thal
Sonnenstrahl --
Gott zum Gruß vieltausendmal!

  Sel'ges Wandern! in dem Herzen
Klingen alle Glocken nach,
Drinnen glüht's wie tausend Kerzen,
Alte Wunder werden wach.
Süßer Friede, Sonntagsruh',
Nahest du?
Gott zum Gruß! ruf' ich dir zu.
