Das ist ein Tag, der klingen mag
 (Sung text for setting by C. Schumann)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Das ist ein Tag, der klingen mag --
  Die Wachtel schlägt im Korn,
Die Lerche jauchzt mit Jubelschlag
Wohl überm hellen grünen Hag,
  Der Jäger bläst in's Horn.

Frau Nachtigall ruft süßen Schall,
  Durch's Laub ein Flüstern zieht,
Das Echo tönt im Widerhall,
Es klingt und singt allüberall --:
  Das ist ein Frühlingslied!
Titled "Ein Frühlingslied" in collections.
