Sieh', schon fliehet des Winters Nacht, In dem Hain ist der Lenz erwacht, In dem sprossenden Laube Nistet die Turteltaube. Liebchen, komm mit in's duft'ge Grün, Wo die heimlichen Veilchen blüh'n, Wo in lieblicher Lenzesnacht Wonne der Liebe lacht. Sieh', wie das silberne Mondenlicht Still mit den flüsternden Blättern spricht, Mit Paradieses Glanz umflicht Dein Angesicht. Liebchen komm mit in's duft'ge Grün, Wo die heimlichen Veilchen blüh'n, Wo in lieblicher Lenzesnacht Wonne der Liebe lacht. Sing' mir die traulichen Lieder, Echo giebt leise sie wieder, Und wie vom Himmel nieder Tönt Sphärenklang. Liebchen komm mit in's duft'ge Grün, Wo die heimlichen Veilchen blüh'n, Wo in lieblicher Lenzesnacht Wonne der Liebe lacht.

Lo, winter’s night is already fleeing, Spring has awoken in the grove, In the sprouting foliage, The turtledove is nesting. Darling, come along into the scented greenery Where the secret violets bloom, Where in the lovely spring night The bliss of love laughs. See how the silvery moonlight Quietly converses with the whispering leaves, How it weaves the radiance of paradise Around your face. Darling, come along into the scented greenery Where the secret violets bloom, Where in the lovely spring night The bliss of love laughs. Sing me the familiar songs, Echo shall repeat them quietly, And as if down from the heavens Sounds the music of the spheres. Darling, come along into the scented greenery Where the secret violets bloom, Where in the lovely spring night The bliss of love laughs.
