The young nun
Rudolf Leberl
Ah, what a poor nun am I!
O mother what have you done!
Spring passed by the bars
And brought me no flowers!
Ah, how far, how far below
Two lambs walk in the valley.
Good luck you lambs,
You've seen spring for the first time.
Ah, how far, how far above
Two birds fly in peace!
Good luck little birds,
You're flying to a better home.
