Erika English translation
von Herms Niel

A tiny little flower is blossoming on the heather
And its name is Erika
A hundred thousand little bees
Are swarming busy around it
Erika
Because its heart is full of sweetness
A gentle fragrance of the blossom is everywhere
A small flower is blossoming on the heather
And its name is
Erika


A blond young maid is living in her homeland
And her name is Erika
This girl is my faithful darling
And my happiness
Erika
When the heather is blossoming red and purple
I'm singing this song to welcome her
A tiny little flower is blossoming on the heather
And her name is Erika

In my room there is also a little flower
And its name is Erika
Already at dawn and also at dusk
It is looking at me
Erika
And then it would seem as if it spoke loudly to me
"Are you also thinking of your little bride?"
At home a little girl is crying for you
And her name is
Erika
