歌曲歌詞
Upon a distant hillside
There stands a linden tree
As children we would play there
My friends and you and me
We thought that it would never end
For children never see
We thought that we would always play
Around the linden tree around the linden tree
One day your eyes were misty
As eyes can sometimes be
You told me that you loved me
Beside the linden tree
I thought you'd always be around
For lovers never see
I thought our children soon would play
Around the linden tree around the linden tree
But then the trumpet sounded
And love was not to be
The call to death or glory
Took you away from me
You thought that you would never die
For soldiers never see
But we will never meet again
Beneath the linden tree beneath the linden tree
And now I lay my flowers
Beside the linden tree
