Come out! Come out! The choir of birds
Is already singing rejoicingly from the roof!
So freshly the flowers gaze upward,
So merrily rushes the brooklet!
    Come out, come out
    From the musty house,
Everything has long been awake already!

  Come out! Come out! In the fresh air
The clouds scud merrily,
And what a garb of radiance and scent
Has been given to the old snows!
    Come out, come out
    From the musty house,
To escape your worries!

  Come out! Come out! Oh, desire to wander!
Hark! how it now rushes and rings!
Come out, come out, you who have never known
How quickly wandering can heal you!
    Come out, come out
    From the musty house,
Through field and lea and forest!
