by P. Thimotheus Kranich (1870 - 1947)

Des Lenzes Minnefahrt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Die Frühlingslüfte brausen
Mit Macht durch's grüne Land,
Sie weben unter Sausen
Der Erde Brautgewand.

Vom wilden Hochwald drüben
Ertönt es wie Schalmein;
Des Südens Sänger üben
Den Hochzeitsreigen ein.

Und froh grüßt jede Welle,
Aus Duft und Klang gepaart:
Glück auf, du Trautgeselle,
Zu deiner Minnefahrt!
