Jeugd en liefde
Language:
Dutch
Jong te zijn! te beminnen!
Hoe zalig en zoet!
O het leven beginnen
met rozengeur en zonnegloed
in 't frisch ontkiemd gemoed!
Jong te zijn! te beminnen!
Hoe zalig en zoet!
Weten dat op uw schreden
Een engel op u wacht
Bloemen strooiend, gebeden.
Gevoelen, hooren dag en nacht
Heur englen reine zieleklacht
Jong te zijn! te beminnen!
Hoe zalig en zoet!
En met open ziel en zinnen
De wereld zenden groet op groet!
Vol hoop, geloof, vol licht en gloed!
Jong te zijn! te beminnen!
Hoe zalig en zoet!

Early love
Language:
English
Early love blissful dreaming,
Days of youth bright and fair!
Joy from ev'ry eye s beaming
With sunny smile and blossoms rare
Fair mirth dispels each rising care!
Early love blissful dreaming,
Days of youth bright and fair!
Fondly each brow caressing
Angelic hands appear
Strewing roses and blessing!
Rejoicing, sighing, naught to know
But love's pure joy, love's sweetest woe.
Early love blissful dreaming,
Days of youth bright and fair!
Joy from ev'ry eye is beaming
To all the world a greeting sens
And gladness lends, its sunny smile
Early love blissful dreaming,
Days of youth bright and fair!
