by Franz Theodor Kugler (1808 - 1858)

Die grauen Wolken streifen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Die grauen Wolken streifen
Der alten Berge Rand,
Sie hüllen mir die Aussicht
Ins glückliche Niederland.

[Doch]1 über den grauen Wolken
Ist [goldner]2 Sonnenschein,
Da schwingt sich meine Liebe
[Auf]3 leichten Flügeln hinein.

[Sie]4 schwingt sich zu der Liebsten
Hinab in's ferne Thal,
Und spricht zu ihr: ich grüße
Dich [viel, viel tausendmal]5!
