by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Frühlingsregen, Frühlingsregen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Frühlingsregen, Frühlingsregen, 
Fließ hernieder sanft und lau, 
Komm, du letzter, bester Segen, 
Voller Sehnsucht harrt die Au! 

Was dem frohen Sonnenstrahle, 
Allen Lüften nicht gelang, 
Alles weckt mit einem Male 
Nun dein leiser Fall und Klang. 

Jedes Gräschen keck sich hebet, 
Alle Knospen öffnen sich, 
Jedes Hälmchen, neu belebet, 
Freuet sich herzinniglich. 

Wald und Wiesengrund sich schmücken 
Mit der schönen grünen Zier, 
Und ein neues Lied muß glücken 
Jedem Vöglein im Revier. 

Alle sträuben ihr Gefieder 
Lustig auf den Ästen schwank, 
Durch die würzge Luft tönt's nieder: 
Warmer Regen, Dank dir, Dank! 

Hast gelöset alle Bande, 
Guter du, so sanft und mild, 
Laß nun wieder ob dem Lande 
Strahlen hell der Sonne Bild!
