Abendlandschaft
Language: German (Deutsch)
Der Hirt blast seine Weise, Von fern ein Schuß noch fällt, Die Wälder rauschen leise Und Ströme tief im Feld. Nur hinter jenem Hügel Noch spielt der Abendschein - O hätt ich, hätt ich Flügel, Zu fliegen da hinein!
Confirmed with Joseph Freiherrn von Eichendorff, Gedichte, Berlin, Verlag von M. Simion, 1841, page 220.
