   Hello, All:   
      
   I saw a sheet of a song with the music of Schmann's "Froehlicher Landmann"   
   (Happy Farmer) and the following lyrics. Could anyone tell who the author of   
   the lyrics is and when it was written?   
      
   When Gentle Winds   
      
   (Lyrics added to Schumann's Froehlicher Landmannn)   
      
   When gentle winds blow o'er the sea,   
   And summer comes with bird and bee,   
   Again we'll rove by wood and stream,   
   And bask beneath the sunny beam;   
   We'll seek again the cowslip dells,   
   And where the modest violet dwells;   
   We'll gaily wander forth once more,   
   And sing the songs we sang of yore;   
   We'll gaily wander forth once more,   
   And sing the songs we sang of yore.
