Wonne glänzt von allen Zweigen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wonne glänzt von allen Zweigen,
Muthig regt sich jedes Reiß,
Blumenkränz' aus Bäumen steigen,
Purpurroth und silberweiß.
Und bewegt wie Harfensaiten
Ist die Welt Ein Jubelklang,
Durch der Welten Dunkelheiten
Tönt der Nachtigall Gesang.
Warum leuchten so die Felder?
Nie hab' ich dies Grün gesehn:
Lustgesang dringt durch die Wälder,
Rauschend wie ein Sturmeswehn.
Sieg und Freiheit blühn die Bäume,
Heil dir Vaterland! erschallt
Jubelnd durch die grünen Räume,
Freiheit! braußt der Eichenwald.
Hoch beglückt, ja hoch gesegnet,
Wem in diesem Lustgefild
Liebesglück noch hold begegnet,
Und die letzte Sehnsucht stillt.

Bliss glistens from all the branches
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Bliss glistens from all the branches,
Every scion burgeons audaciously,
Floral wreaths rise from out the trees,
Crimson red and silvery white.
And, vibrating like the strings of a harp,
The world is a single sonority of rejoicing,
Through the darknesses of worlds
The nightingale’s song resounds.
Why do the fields glow thus?
Never have I seen this green:
Songs of joy penetrate through the woods,
Roaring like the blowing of a storm.
The trees are blooming "Victory" and "Freedom",
"Hail to thee, Fatherland!" rings out
Rejoicingly through the green regions,
"Freedom!" roars the oak forest.
Highly delighted, yea highly blessed,
Is he who, in this realm of joy,
Also encounters good fortune in love,
And whose last yearning is assuaged.
