Im Walde, wenn die Bäume grün
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Im Walde, wenn die Bäume grün, 
Im Walde, wenn die Blumen blüh'n, 
[Und]1 seine Bäche lustig springen, 
Ach, wie so gern mag ich dann singen 
[Im Wald, daß froh]2   es wiederhallt, 
[Ein freies Lied im freien Wald!]3

Im Walde, wenn der Morgen glüht, 
Im Wald' mit freudigem Gemüth 
[Da mag ich]4 gern zum Felsen klimmen, 
[Ach,  und so gern Gesang anstimmen:]5
[Im Wald, daß froh]2 es wiederhallt, 
[Ein freies Lied im freien Wald!]3

Im Wald, im hohen Buchensaal, 
Im Walde bei dem Waldchoral, 
Der kleinen Sänger auf den Zweigen, 
Laß' ich so gern zum Himmel steigen: 
Im Wald, daß froh es wiederhallt, 
Ein freies Lied im freien Wald!
