by Franz Peter Schubert (1797 - 1828)
Ertöne Leyer
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ertöne Leyer Zur Festesfeyer! Apollo steig hernieder, Begeistre unsre Lieder! Lange lebe unser Vater Franz! Lange währe seiner Tage Chor! Und im ewig schönen Flor Blühe seines Lebens Kranz. Wonnelachend umschwebe die Freude Seines grünenden Glückes Lauf. Immer getrennt vom trauernden Leide, Nehm' ihn Elysiums Schatten auf. Endlos wieder töne, holde Leyer, Bringt des Jahres Raum die Zeit zurück, Sanft und schön an dieser Festesfeyer Ewig währe Vater Franzens Glück!
