Ein Leuchten und Klingen Allüberall: Der Lenz hob die Schwingen Und flog durch's Thal Und löste vom Eise Den jubelnden Bach Und küßte leise Die Blüthen wach . . . . O, hab' Erbarmen Nicht dort allein, Woll' auch uns Armen Erlöser sein! Nimm von uns milde Die Sorge, den Schmerz Und tröste das wilde, Friedlose Herz. --
Confirmed with Ausgewählte deutsche Dichtungen für Lehrer und Freunde der Litteratur, erläutert von Karl L. Leimbach, Achter Band, Leipzig, Frankfurt am Main: Kesselringsche Hofbuchhandlung (E. v. Mayer), [1899], page 82.

[There is] a shining and a ringing Everywhere around: Springtime lifted its wings And flew through the valley And released from ice The jubilant brook And quietly wakened The blossoms with a kiss . . . . Oh, have mercy Not only there, Be to us poor wretches A saviour as well! Gently take from us The anxiety, the pain, And comfort the wild, Peaceless heart. --
