Ich irr in Tal und Hainen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: FRE
Ich irr in Tal und Hainen Bei kühler Abendstund, Ach, weinen möcht ich, weinen So recht aus Herzensgrund. Und alter Zeiten Grüßen Kam da, im Tal erwacht, Gleich wie von fernen Flüssen Das Rauschen durch die Nacht. Die Sonne ging hinunter, Da säuselt' kaum die Welt, Ich blieb noch lange munter Allein im stillen Feld.
