  Trockne die Wege, 
Märzenluft!
Segne die Stege,
Veilchenduft!
  Säume nicht länger, o Sonnenschein!
Frühling will kommen in's Land hinein!

  Dräuet nur immer,
Weiße Höh'n!
Fliehn muß der Schimmer
Braust der Föhn!
  Hoch in den Lüften wie fliegen schon
Jubelnde Vögel dem Schnee zum Hohn!

Grünet nur weiter,
Flur und Feld!
Grüßet nur heiter
Fort die Welt!
  Zagende Blumen! auf weitem Plan
Fanget nun alle zu blühen an!

  Trockne die Wege, 
Märzenluft!
Segne die Stege,
Veilchenduft!
  Säume nicht länger, o Sonnenschein!
Frühling will kommen in's Land hinein!
