Sieh wie hell der Himmel quillt
 (Sung text for setting by C. Ansorge)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sieh! wie hell der Himmel quillt!
Göttin Fruchtbarkeit ist aufgewacht.
Wie die Welt in deinem Lichte schwillt,
mütterliche Sternennacht!
Blüten stäuben, Käfer surren, Vögel locken,
Menschensehnsucht wird zum Liebeslaut ...
Sommernächte voll von Hochzeitsglocken,
aller Welt gewalt'ge Pulse stocken,
von der ew'gen Kraft betaut.
