Ihr Glocken von Marling
(1874)
S. 328
Ihr Glocken von Marling
Ihr Glocken von Marling,Wie brauset ihr so hell;Ein wohliges Läuten,Als sänge der Quell.Ihr Glocken von Marling,Ein heil’ger GesangUmwallet wie schützendDen weltlichen Klang.Nehmt mich in die MitteDer tönenden Flut,Ihr Glocken von Marling,Behütet mich gut!
Bells of Marling
Bells of Marling,How brightly you chime;A pleasing soundLike a babbling spring.Bells of Marling,A sacred songEmbraces and protectsThe sounds of the earth.Take me to your heartOf your resounding flood,Bells of Marling,Watch over me well!
