Das Wandern ist des Müllers Lust [English translation]

1 Hiking is the miller's delight

yes hiking

That ought to be a bad miller

Who never thought about hiking

yes hiking

2 From the waters we have learned it

From the waters

It never rests both day and night

Its mind always set on its travels

The waters

3 We also see it in the wheels

The wheels

That never want to stand still

And never get tired turning

The wheels

4 The stones even, as heavy as they are

The stones

They dance along the jolly lines

And yet want to dance faster still

The stones

5 O Hiking, Hiking my delight

O Hiking !

Dear Master and master's wife

So let me now move on in Peace

And go hiking
