Language: German (Deutsch)
Schon zerfließt das ferne Gebirg mit Wolken
In ein Meer; den Wogen entsteigt der Mond, er
Grüßt die Flur, entgegen ihm grüßt das schönste
Lied Philomelens
Aus dem Blütenstrauche, der um das Plätzchen
Zarter Liebe heimlichend sich verschlinget:
Mirzi horcht am Busen des Jünglings ihrem
Zaubergeflöte.
Dort am Hügel weiden die Schafe beider
Traulichen Gemenges in einer Herde,
Ihre Glöcklein stimmen so lieblich ein zu
Frohen Accorden.
