Immer sich rein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE ITA
Immer sich rein
Kindlich erfreu'n,
    Selig, wer's kann.
Jubeln und singen,
Hüpfen und springen,
    Selig, wer's kann.
Lachen und scherzen
Mit fröhlichem Herzen,
    Selig, wer's kann.
Sorgen [zerstreu'n]1,
Gerne [verzeih'n]2,
    Selig, wer's kann.
Menschen beglücken,
Welch' ein Entzücken!
    Selig, wer's kann.
Böses nicht messen
Und Vieles vergessen,
    Selig, wer's kann.
