    My American Beauty Rose
    Composer(s): Harry H. Zickel



    You may talk about your girlies, girlies here and everywhere
    Girls from Norway, Sweden, Italy, and Spain
    Saffron girls from far off China, German girls with flaxen hair
    Girls from Russia, Turkey, pretty girls and plain...
    Not for me your English beauty, or your girl with wooden shoes
    And for me the girls of France no longer pose
    While the Scotch and Irish lassies, really, I must now refuse
    For my own, my fair American Beauty Rose...

    She is regal in her beauty, she is queenly in her grace
    Yet there's warmth and love and passion in her heart ...
    And a smile of true affection seems to glorify her face
    As I read the message, "only death can part"
    Take the charms of all the dear ones, all that's sweetest, all that's best
    'Till you've found the fairest, rarest, Flow'r that grows
    In this sum of all perfection, glowing far above the rest
    You will find my own American Beauty Rose

    Oh you loving, happy Yankee girl....
    You're the one who sets my heart awhirl ...
    You are charming, pretty, wise and kind
    And a dearer, sweeter one no man can find ...
    In your glorious cheeks and skin and eyes ...
    Our Red, White and Blue so bravely flies .....
    And my heart's all for you
    You're true blue thru and thru
    You're my own American Beauty Rose

    Te Acuerdas María
    Composer(s): Augusto Algueró
    Performer(s): Nino Bravo



    Te acuerdas María
    Que yo te cantaba
    Sentado a la sombra del viejo molino

    Te acuerdas María
    Te miraban las aguas correr
    Tus ojos morenos flotando en el río

    Que ayer nos amamos
    Creciendo en los valles
    Por los pastizales robaba tus besos
    Tu pelo muy suelto jugaba en el viento
    Y yo te queria
    con todo mi tiempo

    Te acuerdas María
    Que yo te quería
    Te acuerdas María
    Qué noche más triste
    Cuando me dijiste
    Que tú te marchabas
    María, María

    Hoy sólo nos queda el recuerdo
    Y el murmullo del viento
    Que sigue diciendo
    Te acuerdas María

    Te acuerdas María
    Te acuerdas María

    You Don't Know (What It's Like To Be Near)
    Composer(s): Werner Theunissen
    Performer(s): Pussycat



    If you say, that this life
    has a point to arrive
    you don't know what it's like to be here
    and if you think that time
    heals all troubles of mine
    you don't know what it's like to be near

    ('Cause) I've been trying so hard to get by
    but I've lost every move I could try
    All I'm asking from you
    is just look around too
    and feel me

    Now if you say our cast
    needs the future, the past
    you don't know what it's like to be here
    and if you think, that I've every chance to survive
    you don't know what it's like to be near

    ('Cause) I've been trying so hard to get by
    but I've lost every move I could try
    All I'm asking from you
    is just look around too
    and feel me

    Here's a chance you could grow
    now I need your loving so
    but you don't know what it's like to be near

    Gold Watch Blues
    Composer(s): Mick Softley
    Performer(s): Donovan; Mick Softley



    I went up for my interview on the fourth day of July
    First old man he questioned me until I nearly cried
    Made me fill in forms until I shook with fear
    About the colour of my toilet roll and if my cousin's queer

    Chorus:

    Here's your goldwatch and the shackles for your chain
    And your piece of paper to say you left here sane
    And if you've a son who wants a good career
    Just get him to sign on the dotted line and work for fifty years

    Chorus

    He asked me how many jobs I'd had before
    He nearly had a heart attack when I answered, four
    Four jobs in twenty years, oh, this can never be
    We only take on men who work until they die

    Chorus

    He took me outside to where the gravestones stand in line
    This is where we bury them in quick-stone and in lime
    And if you come to work for us on this you must agree
    That if you're going to die please do it during tea

    Chorus

    This story that you heard you may think rather queer
    But it is the truth you'll be surprised to hear
    I did not want no job upon the board
    I just wanted to take a broom and sweep the bloody floor

    Chorus

    Composer(s): P. Ruiz - M. de la Calva - R. Arcusa
    Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



    Aunque el corazón te diga a gritos
    que hay en tu horizonte un nuevo sol
    aunque tus deseos infinitos
    traten de encontrar un nuevo amor
    Aunque nuestros ojos no se abracen
    ni hablen nuestros cuerpos con pasión
    aunque grites para convencerte
    que no queda nada entre los dos
    Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
    aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
    Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
    aunque te duela tú te acordarás de mi
    Aunque te engalanes de sonrisas
    y quieras mostrarte muy feliz
    aunque si me ves pases de prisa
    yo no estoy detrás estoy en ti
    Aunque te repitas cada noche
    que como tu amante fracase
    que no te hacen falta mis caricias
    que es una mentira de los dos
    Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
    aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
    Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
    aunque te duela tú te acordarás de mi
    Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
    aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi

    Goldmine
    Composer(s): Andy Goldmark; Bruce Roberts
    Performer(s): the Pointer Sisters



    Flowers arrive
    Who else whould think of that but my guy
    He's all heart and all mine
    Ooh, and I don't have to be Miss Perfect One
    For him to love what he sees
    I can feel it in the little things he does
    What I found he's every woman's dream

    My baby he's a goldmine
    Ooh, what he does just keeps my heart in love
    My baby he's a goldmine
    Ooh, all he does just keeps me here in love

    Five times a day
    He calls me up to say, "How ya doin' babe"
    He's just that way
    Leaves me little notes by my coffee cup
    The sweetest poetry to me
    Ooh and every night he tells me with his touch
    The way he moves just makes me want to scream

    His eyes were fire, my heart was cold
    My arms were ready for new love to hold
    He makes me feel something that I've never known
    When you find someone like him, you don't let go

    Girl's got a goldmine and he's so fine
    Girl's got a goldmine and he's all mine
    Baby's got a goldmine, treats me so kind
    Loves me rain or shine
    My baby's divine

    I can feel the little things that he does
    What I found is every woman's dream

    Tchepone
    Composer(s): Chuck Rosenberg - Robin Thomas - Toby Hughes
    Performer(s): Toby Hughes



    I was hanging 'round Ops
    just spending my time
    not on the schedule
    not earning a dime
    When a colonel steps up
    and he says I suppose
    you fly a fighter by the cut
    of your clothes
    He figures me right
    'm, a good one I say

    Do you happen to have me
    a target today?
    He says Yes I do, a real easy one
    No sweat my boy
    it's an old time milk run

    I gets all excited
    and ask where it's at
    He gives me a wink
    and a tip of his hat

    Two-fifty miles away from home drome
    a sweet little hamlet that's known as
    Tchepone

    Oh, you'll sure love Tchepone

    I get on my G-suit
    and strap on my gun
    Helmet and gloves
    out the door on the run
    Fire up my Phantom
    and take to the air
    Two's tucked in tight
    and we haven't a care
    In forty five minutes
    we're over the town
    From twenty eight thousand
    we're screaming on down
    Arm up the switches
    and dial in the mils
    Rack up the wings
    and roll in for the kill

    I feel a bit sorry
    for folks down below
    Of destruction that's coming
    they surely don't know

    The thought passes quickly
    We know a war's on
    On down we scream
    toward peaceful Tchepone

    Unsuspecting, peaceful Tchepone
    Release altitude
    and the pipper's not right
    I'll press just a little
    and lay 'em in tight

    I pickle those beauties
    at two point five grand
    I'm starting my pull
    when it all hits the fan

    A black puff in front
    and then two off the right
    Six or eight more
    and I suck it up tight
    There's small arms and tracer
    and heavy ack ack
    It's scattered to broken
    with all kinds of flack

    I jink hard to left
    and head out for the blue
    My wingman says
    Lead, they're shooting at you!

    No Bull, I cry as I point it for home
    Still comes the fire
    from the town of Tchepone

    Dirty, deadly Tchepone

    I make it back home
    with six holes in my bird
    With the colonel that sent me
    I'd sure like a word
    He's nowhere around
    though I look near and far
    He's gone back to Seventh
    to help run the war
    I've been round this country
    for many a day
    I've seen all the things
    that they're throwing my way

    I know that there's places
    I don't like to go
    down in the Delta
    and in Tally Ho

    But I'll bet all my flight pay
    the jock ain't been born
    Who can keep all his cool
    when he's over Tchepone

    Oh, don't go to Tchepone

    Little goldfish in your bowl
    I've dug you all day long
    Yellow scales arising
    Through the ceiling of my song

    Little bee sat on your flower
    A-swaying in the breeze
    Funny little furry voice
    A-buzzing through the leaves

    Little bird sat upon your twig
    Your sounds ring through my ears
    We can reach the sunrise
    Through the morning's hopes and fears

    Crazed blue-eyed starry-minded
    fluffly little ball
    Oh little baby on my knee
    I love you most of all

    Let me tell you how it will be
    There's one for you, nineteen for me
    'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

    Should five per cent appear too small
    Be thankful I don't take it all
    'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman

    If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
    If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
    If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
    If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet

    Don't ask me what I want it for
    If you don't want to pay some more
    'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

    Declare the pennies on your eyes

    Goldfinger, he's the man, the man with the Midas touch
    A spider's touch
    Such a cold finger beckons you to enter his web of sin
    But don't go in

    Golden words he will pour in your ear
    But his lies can't disguise what you fear
    For a golden girl knows when he's kissed her
    It's the kiss of death from Mister

    Goldfinger, pretty girl, beware of this heart of gold
    This heart is cold

    Golden words he will pour in your ear
    But his lies can't disguise what you fear
    For a golden girl knows when he's kissed her
    It's the kiss of death from Mister

    Goldfinger, pretty girl, beware of this heart of gold
    This heart is cold
    He loves only gold
    Only gold
    He loves gold
    He loves only gold
    Only gold
    He loves gold!!!!!!

    Sequel
    Composer(s): Harry Chapin
    Performer(s): Harry Chapin



    So here she's actin' happy inside her handsome home
    And me, I'm flyin' in my taxi, takin' tips and gettin' stoned

    I got into town a little early
    Had eight hours to kill before the show
    First I thought about heading up north of the bay
    Then I knew where I had to go

    I thought about taking a limousine
    Or at least a fancy car
    But I ended up taking a taxi
    'Cause that's how I got this far

    You see, ten years ago it was the front seat
    Drivin' stoned and feelin' no pain
    Now here I am straight and sittin' in the back
    Hitting Sixteen Parkside Lane

    The driveway was the same as I remembered
    And a butler came and answered the door
    He just shook his head when I asked for her
    And said "She doesn't live here anymore"

    But he offered to give me the address
    That they were forwarding her letters to
    I just took it and returned to the cabbie
    And said "I got one more fare for you"

    And so we rolled back into the city
    Up to a five store old brownstone
    I rang the bell that had her name on the mailbox
    The buzzer said somebody's home

    And the look on her face as she opened the door
    Was like an old joke told by a friend
    It'd taken ten more years but she'd found her smile
    And I watched the corners start to bend

    And she said, "How are you Harry?
    Haven't we played this scene before?"
    I said "It's so good to see you, Sue
    Had to play it out just once more"
    Play it out just once more

    She said I've heard you flying high on my radio
    I answered "It's not all it seems"
    That's when she laughed and she said, "It's better sometimes
    When we don't get to touch our dreams"

    That's when I asked her where was that actress
    She said "That was somebody else"
    And then I asked her why she looked so happy now
    She said "I finally like myself, at last I like myself"

    So we talked all through that afternoon
    Talking about where we'd been
    We talked of the tiny difference
    Between ending and starting to begin
    We talked because talking tells you things
    Like what you really are thinking about
    But sometimes you can't find what you're feeling
    Till all the words run out

    So I asked her to come to the concert
    She said "No, I work at night"
    I said, "We've gotten too damn good at leaving, Sue"
    She said, "Harry, you're right"

    Don't ask me if I made love to her
    Or which one of us started to cry
    Don't ask me why she wouldn't take the money that I left
    If I answered at all I'd lie

    So I thought about her as I sang that night
    And how the circle keeps rolling around
    How I act as I'm facing the footlights
    And how she's flying with both feet on the ground

    I guess it's a sequel to our story
    From the journey 'tween heaven and hell
    With half the time thinking of what might have been
    and half thinkin' just as well

    I guess only time will tell

    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop

    Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere, angel
    Come get up my baby
    Look at that sky, life's begun
    Nights are warm and the days are young
    Come get up my baby

    There's my baby, lost that's all
    Once I'm begging you save her little soul
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Come get up my baby

    Last night they loved you, opening doors and pulling some strings, angel
    Come get up my baby
    In walked luck and you looked in time
    Never look back, walk tall, act fine
    Come get up my baby

    I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years
    Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Come get up my baby

    Some of these days, and it won't be long
    Gonna drive back down where you once belonged
    In the back of a dream car twenty foot long
    Don't cry my sweet, don't break my heart
    Doing all right, but you gotta get smart
    Wish upon, wish upon, day upon day, I believe oh lord
    I believe all the way
    Come get up my baby
    Run for the shadows, run for the shadows, run for the shadows in these golden years

    There's my baby, lost that's all
    Once I'm begging you save her little soul
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Come get up my baby

    Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere, angel
    Come get up my baby
    Run for the shadows, run for the shadows
    Run for the shadows in these golden years

    I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years
    Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, gold
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop
    Golden years, gold whop whop whop

    Taxi
    Composer(s): Harry Chapin
    Performer(s): Harry Chapin



    It was raining hard in 'Frisco
    I needed one more fare to make my night
    A lady up ahead waved to flag me down
    She got in at the light

    Oh, where you going to, my lady blue
    It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain
    She just looked out the window, and said
    "Sixteen Parkside Lane"

    Something about her was familiar
    I could swear I'd seen her face before
    But she said, "I'm sure you're mistaken"
    And she didn't say anything more

    It took a while, but she looked in the mirror
    And she glanced at the license for my name
    A smile seemed to come to her slowly
    It was a sad smile, just the same
    And she said, "How are you Harry?"
    I said, "How are you Sue?
    Through the too many miles
    and the too little smiles
    I still remember you"

    It was somewhere in a fairy tale
    I used to take her home in my car
    We learned about love in the back of the Dodge
    The lesson hadn't gone too far
    You see, she was gonna be an actress
    And I was gonna learn to fly
    She took off to find the footlights
    And I took off to find the sky

    Oh, I've got something inside me
    To drive a princess blind
    There's a wild man, wizard
    He's hiding in me, illuminating my mind
    Oh, I've got something inside me
    Not what my life's about
    Cause I've been letting my outside tide me
    Over 'till my time, runs out

    Baby's so high that she's skying
    Yes she's flying, afraid to fall
    I'll tell you why baby's crying
    Cause she's dying, aren't we all

    There was not much more for us to talk about
    Whatever we had once was gone
    So I turned my cab into the driveway
    Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns
    And she said we must get together
    But I knew it'd never be arranged
    And she handed me twenty dollars
    For a two fifty fare, she said
    "Harry, keep the change"
    Well another man might have been angry
    And another man might have been hurt
    But another man never would have let her go...
    I stashed the bill in my shirt

    And she walked away in silence
    It's strange, how you never know
    But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for
    Such a long, long time ago

    You see, she was gonna be an actress
    And I was gonna learn to fly
    She took off to find the footlights
    And I took off for the sky
    And here, she's acting happy
    Inside her handsome home
    And me, I'm flying in my taxi
    Taking tips, and getting stoned
    I go flying so high, when I'm stoned

    Golden Vanity
    Dutch Title: Noordzee
    Composer(s): Noel Paul Stookey;
    Mary Travers; Peter Yarrow
    Performer(s): Peter, Paul & Mary



    There was a ship that sailed all on the lowland sea
    And the name of the ship was the Golden Vanity
    And we feared she would be taken by the Spanish enemy
    As she sailed upon the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sailed upon the lowland sea

    Then up spoke our cabinboy and boldly out spoke he
    And he said to our captain "What will you give to me
    If I swim along the side of the Spanish enemy
    And I sink her in the lowland sea?"

    "Oh I will give you silver and I will give you gold
    And my own fair daughter your bonny bride shall be
    If you'll swim along the side of the Spanish enemy
    And you'll sink her in the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sink her in the lowland sea

    Then the boy he made him ready and overboard sprang he
    And he swam to the side of the Spanish enemy
    With his brace and auger in her side he bored holes three
    And sank he her in the lowland sea

    Then quickly he swam back to the cheering of the crew
    But the captain would not heed him, his promise he did rue
    And he scorned his poor entreatings when loudly he did sue
    And left him in the lowland,lowland, lowland
    Left him in the lowland sea

    Then the boy he turned round and he swam to the port side
    And up to his messmates full bitterly he cried
    "O messmates, draw me up, for I'm drifting with the tide
    And I'm sinking in the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sinking in the lowland sea"

    Then his messmates drew him up, but on the deck he died
    And they stitched him in a hammock which was so fair and white
    And they low'red him overboard, and he drifted with the tide
    And he sank into the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sank into the lowland sea

    There was a ship that sailed all on the lowland sea
    And the name of the ship was the Golden Vanity
    And we feared she would be taken by the Spanish enemy
    As she sailed upon the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sailed upon the lowland sea

    As she sailed upon the lowland, lowland, lowland
    Sailed upon the lowland sea

    Tavistock Goosey Fair
    Composer(s): C. John Tryhall



    'Tis just a month come Friday next, Bill Champerdown and me
    Us traipsed across old Darty Moor, the Goosey Fair to see
    Us made ourselves quite fitty, us greased and oiled our hair
    Then off us goes in our Sunday clothes behind old Bill's grey mare

    Us smelled the sage and onion 'alf a mile from Whitchurch Down
    And didn't us 'ave a blow out when us come into the town
    And there us met Ned Hannoford, Jan Steer and Nicky Square
    And it seemed to we, all Devon must be to Tavistock Goosey Fair

    And its oh, and where be a-going
    And what be a-doing of there
    Heave down your prong and stamp along
    To Tavistock Goosey Fair

    Us went to see the 'orses and the 'effers and the yews
    Us went on all them roundabouts and into all the shows
    And then it started raining and blowing in our face
    So off us goes down to the Rose to 'ave a dish of tay

    And then us had a sing song and the folks kept dropping in
    And what with one an' t'other, well, us had a drop of gin
    And what with one an' t'other, us didn't seem to care
    Whether us was to Bellever Tor or Tavistock Goosey Fair

    And its oh, and where be a-going
    And what be a-doing of there
    Heave down your prong and stamp along
    To Tavistock Goosey Fair

    'Twere raining streams and dark as pitch when us trotted 'ome that night
    An' when us got past Merrivale Bridge, our mare, 'er took a fright
    Says I to Bill, "Be careful, you'll 'ave us in them drains"
    Says 'e to me, "Cor bugger, why 'aven't you got the reins?"

    Just then the mare ran slap against a whacking great big stone
    'Er kicked the trap to flibbits and 'er trotted off alone
    And when it come to reckoning, 'tweren't no use standing there
    Us 'ad to traipse 'ome thirteen mile from Tavistock Goosey Fair

    And its oh, and where be a-going
    And what be a-doing of there
    Heave down your prong and stamp along
    To Tavistock Goosey Fair

    Muy Despacito
    Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
    Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
    and various other artists



    Despacito, muy despacito
    se fue metiendo en mi corazón
    con mentiras y cariñitos
    la fui queriendo con mucho amor

    Despacito, muy despacito
    creció la llama de mi pasión
    y sabiendo que no era buena
    le di mi vida sin condición

    Y hoy que quiero dejarla de amar
    no responden las fuerzas de mi alma
    ya no sé donde voy a acabar
    porque yo ya no puedo olvidarla

    Despacito, muy despacito
    me dijo cosas que nunca oí
    me enseño lo que tantas veces
    en otros labios no comprendí

    Pero todo, todo se acaba
    la dicha grande también se va
    y nos deja nomás recuerdos
    recuerdos de ella que no vendrá

    Y hoy que quiero dejarla de amar
    no responden las fuerzas de mi alma
    ya no sé donde voy a acabar
    porque yo ya no puedo olvidarla

    Golden Time Of Day
    Composer(s): Frankie Beverly
    Performer(s): Maze; Smooth Jazz All Stars



    There's a time of the day
    When the sun's going down
    That's the golden time of day

    It's a time that the sun
    Shines the gold of her love
    That's the golden time of day

    I'm thinking of the day
    When the wind is soft and low
    All the leaves and flowers sway

    When the sun settles down
    And it takes a lovely morn'
    That's the golden time of day

    Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooohh
    Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh, wooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

    People let me tell you that the time
    In your life, when you find who you are
    That's the golden time of day

    And then in your mind you will find
    You're upright, shining star
    That's the golden time of day

    When you feel deep inside
    All the love you're looking for
    Don't it make you feel okay

    That's like the time of the day
    When the sun's going down
    That's the golden time of day
    Ooh-oooh, that's the golden time of day
    Oh-ooh-hah-ooh-aah-aahhh, that's the golden time of day

    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Ooh, shine children, shine
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Let your lovelight shine
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Feel it, feel it
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Oh, shining, to believe in love
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Look above and give your heart, yeah, yeah
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Yeah, if you believe in love, shine
    (Shining, can't you see it shining, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah)
    Shine, shine your love, shine your love, shine your love
    (Shining, can't you see it shining)

    Tausend Wunder
    ((Swedish Version: Jag Skall Göra Allt (Agnetha Fälskog))
    Composer(s): Agnetha Fälskog - Ben Juris
    Performer(s): Agnetha Fälskog



    Daß die Nebel steigen in den Bergen
    Daß die Wolken immer weiterziehen
    Es muß so sein und keiner hält sie auf

    Daß die Blumen blühen auf den Wiesen
    Daß die Sonne abends untergeht
    Er ist irgendwo und hat es so bestimmt

    Tausend Wunder gibt es auf dieser Welt
    Tausend Wunder, die wir nicht sehen
    Tausend Wunder, sind sie auch noch so klein
    Sie geschehen tagaus, tagein
    Mach' die Augen auf, denn schön ist diese Welt

    Daß es Liebe gibt hier auf der Erde
    Daß du Freunde hast die dich verstehen
    Daß du Träume hast die in Erfüllung gehen

    Daß du traurig warst und wieder glücklich bist
    Und voll Hoffnung in die Zukunft siehst
    Er ist irgendwo und hat es so bestimmt

    Tausend Wunder gibt es auf dieser Welt
    Tausend Wunder, die wir nicht sehen
    Tausend Wunder, sind sie auch noch so klein
    Sie geschehen tagaus, tagein
    Mach' die Augen auf, denn schön ist diese Welt
