The word "Vogelsang" is in this verse: "Sie entsteigt der Morgenkühle, Trägt das helle Licht empor, Hüllt das Land in Nebelschwüle, Vogelsang dringt an mein Ohr." I have everything else translated except for that word "Vogelsang". Cheers |

I am aware of exactly two contexts of this word: 1) the German original of "Peat bog soldiers" uses it with the normal meaning "bird song". 2) Several place names, including castles, https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogelsang, Thanks Rolf |

Thanks In Switzerland it's a very common place name, and also can be a family name.If you look at the Swiss topographical map at https://map.geo.admin.ch/?lang=en and enter "Vogelsang" as a search term you will get more than 30 locations with this name. Note that birdsong is "Vogelgesang", not "Vogelsang". Ned |
