by Heinrich Leuthold (1827 - 1879)

Und wiederum die reine Luft
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Und wiederum die reine Luft 
Von deinen Bergen athm' ich ein,
Und wiederum, o Schweizerland,
O süße Heimat, bist du mein!

Ein Alphorn klagt gedämpften Tons 
Herüber von dem Felsenhang,
Ein fernes Heerdenglöcklein klingt,
Und meine Seele wird Gesang.

In eine Aeolsharfe ist 
Verwandelt wieder mein Gemüth,
Darüber wie ein linder Hauch 
Der Zauber deiner Sagen zieht.
