lyrics

O Jugend, o schöne Rosenzeit
Von allen schönen Kindern auf der Welt
Mir eines doch am meisten wohlgefällt;
Es hat ein rot Mündlein und dunkelbraunes Haar;
Wohl will ich es lieben auch ganz und gar.

Die Grübchen in den Wangen,
Das Grübchen in dem Kinn,
Drin war mich gleich gefangen
Mein ganzer leichter Sinn,

Und in die blauen Augen,
Seh' ich da recht hinein,
Da möcht' ich mein Lebtag
Gefangen drin sein!

O Jugend, o schöne Rosenzeit!
Die Wege, die Stege sind mit Blumen bestreut;
Der Himmel steht offen, man schaut die Engelein.
O könnt' ich, Herzliebsten, stets bei dir sein!



O youth, o lovely time of roses
Of all the lovely youths of the world,
There is just one I like the most of all;
He has a red little mouth and dark brown hair;
Very much I want to love him completely and totally.

The dimples in his cheeks,
The dimple in his chin,
I am all caught up in them
All of my fleeting senses.

And in the blue eyes,
I see right directly within,
There I would like for my lifetime
To be caught up inside!

O youth, o lovely time of roses
The paths, the shores are littered with blossoms;
The heavens stand wide open, one can see the angels.
O if only I could, my heart’s love, forever be near you!
