by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874)

Das Kleeblatt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein Täubchen flog vom Himmelszelt
Und bracht' ein Kleeblatt in die Welt --
Ihr wißt es alle: Liebe, Glaube, Hoffnung.

Was aus dem Blatt geschrieben stand
Gar leserlich von Gottes Hand --
Ihr wißt es alle: Liebe, Glaube, Hoffnung.

Das Blatt ist aller Welt bekannt,
Und selig ist wer es verstand --
Ihr wißt es alle: Liebe, Glaube, Hoffnung.
