by Paul Heyse (1830 - 1914)

Gärtnerin, von allen Vögeln
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Gärtnerin, von allen Vögeln
Fingst du heut den Schönsten
Vogler, unter allen Arten
Blumen in dem Erdengarten
Ward die wundersamste dein.

Vogler, mußt dein Blümlein hüten,
Daß sich's recht ans Herz dir schmiegt;
Und du mußt des Vogels pflegen,
Mußt ihn warm am Busen hegen,
Daß er nicht von dannen fliegt!

Jedes mag vom Andern lernen,
Was das Herz beglücken kann;
Auf der Erde froh zu blühen,
Und nach allen ird'schen Mühen
Sich zu schwingen himmelan!
