Kommt, laßt uns geh'n spazieren

  Kommt, laßt uns geh'n spazieren
Durch den vielgrünen Wald!
Die Vögel musizieren,
Daß Berg und Tal erschallt.

  Wohl dem, der frei kann singen,
Wie du, du Volk der Luft,
Und seine Stimme schwingen
Zu [dem, auf den]1 er hofft.

  Wohl jedem, der frei lebet
Wie du, du leichte Schar,
In Trost und Frieden schwebet
Und außer aller Fahr.
