2. Frühlingsglaube  [sung text not yet checked]
Die [linden]1 Lüfte sind erwacht, Sie [säuseln und weben]2 Tag und Nacht, Sie [schaffen]3 an allen Enden. O [frischer]4 Duft, o neuer Klang! Nun armes Herze, sey nicht bang! Nun muß sich [Alles, Alles]5 wenden. Die Welt wird schöner [mit]5 jedem Tag, Man weiß nicht, was noch werden mag, Das Blühen will nicht enden. Es blüht das fernste, [tiefste]6 Thal. Nun armes Herz, vergiß [der]7 Qual! Nun muß sich [Alles, Alles]8 wenden.

3. Künftiger Frühling  [sung text not yet checked]
Wohl blühet jedem Jahre Sein Frühling mild und licht, Auch jener große, klare -- Getrost! er fehlt dir nicht; Er ist dir noch beschieden Am Ziele deiner Bahn, Du ahnest ihn hienieden, Und droben bricht er an.

4. Morgenlied  [sung text not yet checked]
Noch ahnt man kaum der Sonne Licht, Noch sind die Morgenglocken nicht Im finstern Tal erklungen. Wie still des Waldes weiter Raum! Die Vöglein zwitschern nur im Traum, Kein Sang hat sich erschwungen. Ich hab' mich längst ins Feld gemacht, Und habe schon dies Lied erdacht, Und hab' es laut gesungen

5. Die Kapelle  [sung text not yet checked]
Droben stehet die Kapelle, Schauet still ins Tal hinab, Drunten [singt]1 bei Wies' und Quelle Froh und hell der Hirtenknab'. Traurig tönt das Glöcklein nieder, Schauerlich der Leichenchor; Stille sind die frohen Lieder, Und der Knabe lauscht empor. Droben bringt man sie zu Grabe, Die sich freuten in dem Tal. Hirtenknabe, Hirtenknabe! Dir auch singt man dort einmal.

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the capitalized word "über" becomes "Ueber", but this is often due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, since the lower-case version is not "ueber", so we use "Über".
