Lyrics

Mütterlein

Liebes kleines Mütterlein

Nun darf ich endlich bei dir sein

Die Sehnsucht und die Einsamkeit

Erlösen sich in Seligkeit

Liebes kleines Mütterlein

Nun darf ich endlich bei dir sein

Die Sehnsucht und die Einsamkeit

Erlösen sich in Seligkeit

Die Wiege ist dein Heimatkleid

Ein Schweben deine Herrlichkeit

In Wonne wandelt dein Herzeleid

Und greift in die siegende Flut hinein

Die Wiege ist dein Heimatkleid

Ein Schweben deine Herrlichkeit

In Wonne wandelt dein Herzeleid

Und greift in die siegende Flut hinein
