Frühlingsglaube (Faith In Spring)


This is an English translation of my favorite Springtime poem, by Ludwig Uhland:
 
SWEET BREEZES have awoken
Day and night they stir and whisper
Everywhere they are at work
Oh fresh perfume, oh new music!
Now, poor heart, fear no longer
Now, all things must change.
 
The world grows more beautiful each day
and what may yet happen, no one can tell.
The flowering will not end, and
even the deepest, most distant valley is blooming
Now, my poor heart, forget your pain.
Now, all things must change.
