Frühlingslied

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

  Der Frühling kehret wieder,
Und schmücket Berg und Tal;
Schon tönen rings die Lieder
Der süßen Nachtigall.

  Wie steiget hoch die Sonne
In's Himmelblau hinauf,
Verbreitet Lust und Wonne
Auf ihrem weiten Lauf!

  Es eilen Schaf' und Rinder
Der grünen Wiese zu;
Es blickt auf's Spiel der Kinder
Der Greis aus seiner Ruh.

Lentelied

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

De lent' is weer aanwezig
En siert weer berg en dal;
De nachtegaal is bezig,
Zijn lied klinkt overal.
 
Hoe is de zon aan 't klimmen
In 't hemelblauw omhoog,
Van lust gaat alles glimmen,
Terwijl zij trekt haar boog.
 
Naar groene weiden hollen
Nu schapen, os en koe;
En kind'ren zijn aan 't dollen,
De oude man kijkt toe.
