Brother, sisters, Welcome to the garden Of earthly delights Of earthly delights All things wither, But here a drink from the garden of youth Brings respite To all men alike Here autumn is not bitter There's no death in winter Spring eclipses in her All your suffering spite And all is calm All is quiet Begin and end In the gift of the night. Mother, father Come and spread your wings In a limitless flight A limitless flight All things wither, But here a drink from the garden of youth Brings respite To all men alike Here autumn is not bitter There's no death in winter Spring eclipses in her All your suffering plight And all is calm All is quiet Begin and end In the gift of the night
