by Wilhelm Floto (1812 - 1869)

Es blühet das Blümchen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es blühet das Blümchen voll Glanz und voll Duft,
es wiegt sich und schmiegt sich in laulicher Luft;
doch nimmst ihm die Sonne, wird bald es vergeh'n,
da ist's um das Blümchen, das arme gescheh'n.

Es singet das Vöglein so fröhlich im Hain,
es jubelt so selig ins Leben hinein;
doch nimmst ihm das Lüftchen, wird bald es vergeh'n
da ist's um das Vöglein, das arme gescheh'n.

Es klopfet das Herz ach so bang in der Brust,
es zittert und woget voll Freud' und voll Lust;
doch nimmst ihm die Liebe, wird bald es vergeh'n,
da ist's um das Herze, das arme gescheh'n.
