by Joseph Karl Benedikt, Freiherr von Eichendorff (1788 - 1857)

Morgenlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Es hat die Nacht geregnet,
Es zog noch grau ins Tal,
Und ruhten still gesegnet
Die Felder überall;
Von Lüften kaum gefächelt,
Durchs ungewisse Blau
Die Sonne verschlafen lächelt'
Wie eine wunderschöne Frau.

Nun sah ich auch sich heben
Aus Nebeln unser Haus,
Du dehntest zwischen den Reben
Dich von der Schwelle hinaus,
Da funkelt' auf einmal vor Wonne
Der Strom und Wald und Au -
Du bist mein Morgen, meine Sonne,
Meine liebe, verschlafene Frau!
