Droppen, droppen
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)
Droppen, droppen kloppen, dansmuziek ik hoor, tooverij het boomgeruisch, tooverij het koor. Even, even beven druppen op mijn hand, klettrend valt de regenbui neer op bosch en land. Droomen, droomen komen, nu ik zingend ga, onder hooge boomen loop, durvend even sta. Vallend, vallend schallend juicht de regen voort; duizend stemmen zingen mij hoog in koor hun woord.
