by Julius Karl Reinhold Sturm (1816 - 1896)

Düfte wogen auf und nieder
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Düfte wogen auf und nieder,
In den Lüften süsser Schall,
Stille Blumen, laute Lieder,
Engel Gottes überall!

Und schon ward mein Herz zur Blume
Und der Blume Duft zum Lied,
Das im klaren Heiligtume
Aufwärts mit den Engeln zieht!
