Eine kleine Frühlingsweise English translation
von Comedian Harmonists

A little spring song
Takes my heart on a journey
Out to the beautiful wide world
There, where colourful flowers bloom
There, where white clouds drift
At the edge of the forest stands a house

Still, without worries, peaceful and safe
There, lies the world in sunshine
Under ancient trees, you can dream
Throughout the golden spring day

All the bees faintly buzz
My little spring song
Bright butterflys flutter here and there
Nature has strown beautiful blooming flowers
On every pathway
And the roses smell sweet and heavy


But how soon this splendor disappeared
On a beautiful day in may
Then a cold frost in the greys hours of night
Destroyed everything green
All the birds on the branches have long since fallen silent
And the butterflies don't dance any more
Even the old trees freeze over in silence
And the little flowers feel so sad

Suddenely, it sounds softly
My little spring song
Until the sun shines down
And the flowers bloom, children
And the white clouds drift again
And the cold night is forgotten

Be happy in your youth, Seize every moment
When the sun shines on you in may
Search for the beauty in life, don't just stand by
Because the spring passes so quickly
