Wind, du mein Freund!
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wind, du mein Freund! Lang hielten Berge mich grämlich umzäunt. Nun wieder grüß' ich dich, frei, dich, den Freien; nun gib mir, Himmelsspross, wieder die Weihen, Wecker zu sein wie du aller verschlafnen Ruh'! Wind, du mein Freund! Du mein liebster Genoss!
