An den Frühling by Albert Lortzing — Lyrics
Willkommen schöner Jüngling!
Du Wonne der Natur!
Mit deinem Blumenkörbchen
Willkommen auf der Flur!
Ei! Ei! Da bist du wieder!
Und bist so lieb und schön!
Und freun wir uns so herzlich,
Entgegen dir zu gehn.
Denkst auch noch an mein Mädchen?
Ei, lieber, denke doch!

About An den Frühling
This charming German partsong by Albert Lortzing celebrates the arrival of spring. The TTBB setting captures the joyful anticipation of the season, as expressed in the text. It paints a picture of nature reawakening and the simple delights associated with this time of year, including gathering flowers. The persona of the song addresses spring personified as a youth, welcoming him and asking for floral tributes, perhaps for a beloved. It evokes a sense of youthful exuberance and innocent affection, making it suitable for occasions celebrating nature, romance or the changing seasons.
