‘Sound of Music’ Song: Edelweiss Trivia and Lyrics
Many people think that this song was written centuries ago and is the National Anthem of Austria. However, it turns out that the song was written by Oscar Hammerstein II for the Sound of Music in 1959.
Edelweiss is a white flower found high in the Alpine hills and the lyrics reflect its change and the effect on people. I don’t really know if that makes sense, but it’s ok.
Edelweiss Lyrics
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white, clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever
