Wenn die Rosen blühen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wenn die Rosen blühen,
Hoffe, liebes Herz,
Still und kühl verglühen
Wird der heiße Schmerz,
Was den Winter über
Oft unheilbar schien,
Es entweicht das Fieber,
Wenn die Rosen blühn.
Wenn die Rosen blühen,
Liebe, blühst du auch,
Rosenroth zu glühen
In des Maien Hauch,
Wo so manchen Wunden
Schmerz und Krankheit flieh'n,
Laß auch mich gefunden,
Wenn die Rosen blüh'n!
Wenn die Rosen blühen,
Mattgequältes Herz,
Freue dich, wir ziehen
Dann wohl himmelwärts.
Ewig dann geneesen,
Wirst du neu erglüh'n;
Wirst ein Himmlisch Wesen,
Wenn die Rosen blüh'n.

When the roses bloom
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
When the roses bloom,
dear hoping heart,
Still and cool,
the searing pain will burn away.
Whatever seemed incurable
all winter,
The fever subsides
when the roses bloom.

When the roses bloom,
crushed heart,
Rejoice, then we will
draw heavenward.
Then eternally healed,
you will glow anew,
Becoming a heavenly being
when the roses bloom.
