Lyrics:
First verse
The flowers are all budding, Each bird builds his nest, Our love is in its springtime, Let's build with the rest, For you are my sweetheart, And why should we wait? When love is in its springtime, Each heart seeks its mate.
Refrain
Sweetheart, Sweetheart, you are my dearest one Fairer, Fairer than springtime's flowers can be. Sweetheart, Sweetheart, you are my nearest one, Sweetheart, you are the world to me! Sweetheart.
Second verse
The white snow flakes are falling, Birds sing sweet no more, But love, it still is calling, Fondly as of yore, For you're still my sweetheart, My love still is true, In winter or in summer, My sweetheart that's you.
(Refrain)
