[FRAULEIN KOST, spoken] Herr Ludwig! You are not leaving so early? [ERNST] I do not find this party amusing [FRAULEIN KOST] Ah- but it is just beginning. Come, we will make it Amusing- you and I- Ja? Herr Ludwig- this is for you The sun on the meadow is summery warm The stag in the forest runs free But gather together to greet the storm Tomorrow belongs to me The branch of the linden is leafy and Green The Rhine gives its gold to the sea But somewhere a glory awaits unseen
Tomorrow belongs to me Herr Ludwig! Sing with me! [FRAULEIN KOST AND ERNST] The babe in his cradle is closing his eyes The blossom embraces the bee But soon, says a whisper "Arise, arise Tomorrow belongs to me" [FRAULEIN KOST] Everybody! [ALL, except FRAULEIN SCHNEIDER, SCHULTZ, CLIFF And SALLY, who stand watching] Oh Fatherland, Fatherland Show us the sign Your children have waited to see The morning will come When the world is mine Tomorrow belongs to me!
