While neither German nor Austrian I though I'd give it a shot nevertheless.
I found this version which looks to has the elements you mentioned:
The word "tyrol" should be "Tirol" and doesn't actually feature in the original song, but I suppose has been put there by the japanese translater to point to the origin of the song. The "Spring" that you mentioned is Peters Spring and is supposed to be a pub allthough it also could be possible that Spring is related to "After Easter" which is mentioned in the 2nd verse alltough I doubt it as it ruins the flow of the song. The "Song" represents the call / sound of the Cuckoo in the woods.
I suppose the title of the song reads: And now I go to Peters Pub.

The first verse talks about tyrol / spring / song meeting
I found this version which looks to has the elements you mentioned:
Quote
1.) Oh, I went down to Peter’s spring
Where the water’s so good
And I heard, there, a cuckoo
As he called from the wood
Holluhdee, holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo!
Holdera deereeahoh!
2.) After Easter, there’ll be sunny days
That will melt all the snow
Then, I’ll marry my sweetheart;
We’ll be happy, I know!
Holluhdee, holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeahoh!
3.) When I’ll marry my sweetheart
Nothing more I’ll desire
But a home for her tending
And some wood for the fire
Holluhdee, holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeah
Holdera coo-coo, coo-coo, coo-coo!
Holdera deereeahoh!
