Was klingen denn die Hörner
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE ITA
Chor:
 Was klingen denn die Hörner
 Im Morgendämmerschein,
 Was bringen sie ein Ständchen
 Vor ihrem Kämmerlein?
 Hochzeit wird gefeiert!
 Wörtlein, ach so süß,
 Schlüsslein zu dem trauten
 Eheparadies!
 Hochzeit wird gefeiert!
 Röslein, auf, erwach'!
 Fei're froh noch deinen
 Letzten Mädchentag!

Sopran:
 Die Kirchenglocken klingen,
 Und vor des Heilands Bild
 Hat sich aus ihrem Traume
 Die Wahrheit schön enthüllt.

Frauenchor:
 Den Bund der treuen Herzen
 Hat Priestermund geweiht,
 Den Schwur der treuen Liebe
 Schrieb ein die Ewigkeit.
