by Heinrich Pfeil (1835 - 1899)

Die Sonne guckt in's Fensterlein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Sonne guckt in's Fensterlein, 
Sie blinkt mir grüßend zu, 
Nun läßt es meinem Wandersinn 
Im Hause keine Ruh'.  

Die Sonne guckt in's Fensterlein, 
Sie schaut mich freundlich an, 
D'rum greif' ich schnell zum Reisestab, 
Nun geht das Wandern an.

About the headline (FAQ)

Confirmed with Komödiantenfahrten by Karoline Bauer, a volume of memoirs. Appears in chapter VII, "Braunschweig", page 323. This text indicates "Lied von Abt" with no author identified, so we have used it to mark the Abt sung text as confirmed.
