Mit Musik durch die Adventszeit

Das Jahr geht bald zu Ende, Weihnachten steht vor der Tür Der Nikolaus lässt auch nicht mehr lange auf sich warten. Der Dezember ist ein großartiger Monat. Der Adventskalender soll mit seinen 24 Fensterchen die Wartezeit bis zu Weihnachten versüßen. Hier hat du einen ONLINE-ADVENTSKALENDER. Das ist der Kalender vom Goethe-Institut. Von drauß, vom Walde komm’ ich her;Ich muß euch sagen, es weihnachtet sehr.Allüberall auf den Tannenspitzensah ich goldene Lichtlein sitzen. Und drüben aus dem Himmelstorsah mit großen Augen das Christkind hervor.Und wie ich strolcht’ durch den finstern Tann,da rief’s mich mit heller Stimme an: “Knecht Ruprecht, alter Gesell,hebe die Beine und spute dich schnell! Die Kerzen fang’ zu brennen an,das Himmelstor ist aufgetan,Alt’ und Junge sollen nunvon der Jagd des Lebens einmal ruhn; und morgen flieg’ ich hinab zur Erden,denn es soll wieder Weihnachten werden!”

Ich soll nur noch in diese Stadt,wo’s eitel gute Kinder hat.” Create a Web Advent Calendar. For my wonderful daughter.
