by Heinrich Leuthold (1827 - 1879)

O Lebensfrühling, Blüthendrang
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O Lebensfrühling, Blüthendrang,
O süßer Duft, o holder Mai,
O blaue Luft, o Jugendklang,
Wie lange, ach, seid ihr vorbei!

Und die Erinnerung davon,
Die mir im wunden Herzen bebt,
Ist eines Glöckleins Silberton,
Der über einer Wahlstatt schwebt.
