~ O schöne Zeit, o sel'ge Zeit ~ | |
This translation is a little more poetic and refers to those distant times "Im Maien" (in May) when all young hearts turn to thoughts of love. Also see translation: Im Maien. The 2.5 L, pottery, relief stein made by Girmscheid is marked 188A, ca. 1900. The text is from a song written by German composer Carl Götze (1836-1887) | |
O schöne Zeit, o sel'ge Zeit wie liegst du fern, wie liegst du weit! |
Oh lovely time, oh blessed time. How far thou art, How distant thou art! |
