Edelweiss – Lullaby

Lullaby

Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.

Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.

“Edelweiss” is a song from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, “The Sound of Music.” The song is performed by the character Captain Georg von Trapp, played by Christopher Plummer, and is a tribute to Austria’s natural beauty and the Edelweiss flower, which has become a national symbol. The song has since become a popular folk tune and is often associated with the Alps and mountainous regions of Europe.
