by (Carl Friedrich) Julius Altmann (1814 - 1873)

Schön ist die Welt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wie leuchtet [aus]1 der Blumenau 
Des Weihers Silberspiegel!  
Wie ragen sanft in's Himmelsblau
Die morgengoldnen Hügel! 

Ich schau' in's Thal und schau' hinauf
Mit freudenhellen Blicken. 
Schön ist die Welt, so jauchz' ich auf  -- 
Ich möcht' an's Herz sie drücken.
