possibly by Wilhelm Friedrich (1805 - 1857)

Rund ist Alles auf der Welt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Rund ist Alles auf der Welt: 
Rund das blaue Himmelszelt, 
Vollmond rund und Regenbogen, 
Rund die Erde sammt den Wogen, 
Alles, Alles rund, rund, rund 
Auf dem bunten Erdenrund!  

Rund ist Alles auf der Welt: 
Rund der Glücksrad, rund das Geld, 
Grübchen rund in Mädchens Wangen, 
Lippen, die nach Küssen bangen; 
Liebchens Hals und Arme rund, 
Alles, ach, so rund, so rund!  

Rund ist Alles auf der Welt: 
Rund das Faß, das Wein enthält, 
Rund der Tropfen und der Becher, 
Rund der Kreis der frohen Zecher, 
Und der Scherz von Mund zu Mund 
Dreht die Köpfe rund, rund, rund!
