Wie bist du Frühling gut und treu,
Daß nie du kömmst mit leerer Hand! -- 
Du bringst dem Baume Blätter neu,
Dem Blümlein farbiges Gewand! 

Du bringst das Lied dem Vögelein, 
Durch dich so blau der Himmel lacht! 
Du bringst der Welt den Sonnenschein, --
Was hast du mir denn mitgebracht?

Waldvögelein! Wie singst du heut' 
So herzlichlieb, wie nie zuvor! 
Möcht' fliegen ja vor lauter Freud'
Ein Vöglein hoch zu Gott empor!

Ihr lieben Vöglein, singt nur fort, 
So lang's vermag die kleine Brust! 
Singt von des Frühlings Herrlichkeit, 
Singt von des Frühlings Lieb' und Lust! 

Und sänget ihr auch ewig fort, 
Viel tausend Jahre Tag und Nacht,
Ihr könntet singen nie genug! --
So schön hat Gott die Welt gemacht!
