The sky is beaming, so bright and clear

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

 The sky is beaming, so bright and clear;
 even more brightly do your eyes beam at me.
 You, my rose, gaze into my eyes,
 so that I bless you in my happiness.
 
 The little bird's song resounds with such loveliness, 
 yet my darling sings a much sweeter song.
 You, my rose, gaze into my eyes,
 so that I bless you in my happiness.
 
 The sun kisses the entire world,
 yet your rosy lips kiss me even more warmly.
 You, my rose, gaze into my eyes,
 so that I bless you in my happiness.
