Abendlandschaft

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!

by Josef Karl Benedikt von Eichendorff (1788-1857) , "Abendlandschaft", from Frühling und Liebe
