by Friedrich Hölderlin (1770 - 1843)
Der Frühling
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wenn auf Gefilden neues Entzücken keimt Und sich die Ansicht wieder verschönt und sich An Bergen, wo die Bäume grünen, Hellere Lüfte, Gewölke zeigen, O! welche Freude haben die Menschen! froh Gehn an Gestaden Einsame, Ruh' und Lust Und Wonne der Gesundheit blühet, Freundliches Lachen ist auch nicht ferne.
