Nun bricht aus allen Zweigen
 (Sung text for setting by A. Billeter)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Nun bricht aus allen Zweigen
Das maienfrische Grün,
Die ersten Lerchen steigen,
Die kleinen Veilchen blüh'n;
Und golden liegen Tal und Höh'n --
O Welt, du bist so wunderschön
Im Maien!
 
Und wie die Knospen springen,
Da regt sich's allzumal;
Die muntren Vögel singen,
Die Quelle rauscht in's Tal;
Und freudig schallt das Lustgetön:
O Welt, du bist so wunderschön
Im Maien!
 
Wie sich die Bäume wiegen
Im lieben Sonnenschein!
Wie hoch die Vögel fliegen,
Ich möchte hinterdrein;
Möcht' jubeln über Tal und Höh'n:
O Welt, du bist so wunderschön,
Im Maien!
