by Johann Ludwig Uhland (1787 - 1862)
Language: German (Deutsch)
Noch ahnt man kaum der Sonne Licht, Noch sind die Morgenglocken nicht Im finstern Tal erklungen. Wie still des Waldes weiter Raum! Die Vöglein zwitschern nur im Traum, Kein Sang hat sich erschwungen. Ich hab' mich längst ins Feld gemacht, Und habe schon dies Lied erdacht, Und hab' es laut gesungen
