by August von Platen-Hallermünde (1796 - 1835)

O wonnigliche Reiselust
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O wonnigliche Reiselust,
an dich gedenk ich früh und spat!
Der Sommer naht,
der Sommer naht,
Mai, Juni, Juli und August,
da quillt empor,
da schwillt empor
das Herz in jeder Brust.

Ein Tor, wer immer stille steht,
drum Lebewohl und reisen wir!
Ich lobe mir,
ich lobe mir
die Liebe, die auf Reisen geht!
Drum säume nicht
und träume nicht,
wer meinen Wink versteht.
