[translation of the song 'Wenn ich ein Vöglein w;r' from the German song-book Des Knaben Wunderhorn] for Wikimedia projects
Oh, when I were a bird
And had two wings to ford,
I'd rise to thee;
Instead, I stay on earth —
I cannot leave.
Though within my dreams
We stand one by one with thee,
My single word,
Whispering to thy ears,
Leaves me alone.
Any hour shortens the night,
Once again my heart to bite,
Thee again to call,
For thou sent me so many times
Thy whole soul.

Oh, when I were a bird
