Da ist ja der Staar

Da ist ja der Staar,
Wie singt er so klar,
Kommt bald wohl der Storch gar
Verkündet das Frühjahr,
Und Alles was singt
Den Sommer uns bringt.

Nun, Winter, ade!
Es schmolz Eis und Schnee,
Wie Kummer am Morgen,
Wie Klagen und Sorgen,
Wie Gram über Nacht,
Wenn's Herz wieder lacht.
