Nun die Falter wieder scherzen Nach dem langen Wintertraum, Lustig um die Blüthenkerzen Fliegen am Kastanienbaum, Nun die Amseln wieder schlagen Froh den Halm zu Nesten tragen: Gib den Düften deine Pein, Zaud're nicht und jub'le drein! Nun die Schwalben keck sich wiegen Froh im blauen Äthermeer, Sie die Lerchen überfliegen, Ringsum klingt ein Lied daher, Nun die Sträuche, nun die Bäume Träumen ihre schönsten Träume: Gib den Düften deine Pein, Zaud're nicht und jub'le drein! Nun die Sonne früh am Morgen Alsobald in's Herz dir lacht Und für dich noch hält geborgen Abends ihre tiefste Pracht, Nun du magst von allen Sternen Nachts den Jubelreigen lernen: Gib den Düften deine Pein, Zaud're nicht und jub'le drein!

Now that the butterflies are jesting again After the long winter dream, Merrily flying about the blossom-candles Upon the chestnut tree, Now that the blackbirds are singing again, Joyfully carrying straws to their nest: Give your pain over to the scents, Do not hesitate and join in the rejoicing! Now that the swallows are jauntily swaying Joyfully in the blue sea of the aether, They fly higher than the skylarks, All around a song is resounding, Now that the bushes, the trees Are dreaming their most beautiful dreams: Give your pain over to the scents, Do not hesitate and join in the rejoicing! Now that, early in the morning, the sun Laughs immediately into your heart, And still in the evening securely holds Its most profound splendour for you, Now that you can learn the rejoicing roundelay From all the stars: Give your pain over to the scents, Do not hesitate and join in the rejoicing!
