by William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)
Translation by Dorothea Tieck (d. 1841)
Hearke, hearke, the Larke at Heavens...
Language: English
Hearke, hearke, the Larke at Heavens gate sings,
and Phœbus gins arise,
His Steeds to water at those Springs
on chalic'd Flowres that lyes:
And winking Mary-buds begin to ope their Golden eyes
With every thing that pretty is, my Lady sweet arise:
Arise arise.

CLOTEN Horch! Lerch' am Himmelstor singt hell, Und Phöbus steigt herauf, Sein Roßgespann trinkt süßen Quell Von Blumenkelchen auf; Die Ringelblum' erwacht vom Traum, Tut güldne Augen auf; Lacht jede Blüt im grünen Raum, Drum holdes Kind, steh auf: Steh auf, steh auf, steh auf!
