Erwacht zum neuen Leben Steht vor mir die Natur, Und sanfte Lüfte weben Durch die beschneite Flur. Empor aus seiner Hülle Drängt sich der junge Halm, Der Wälder öde Stille Belebt der Vögel Psalm. ... O Vater, deine Milde Fühlt Berg und Tal und Au, Es grünen die Gefilde, Beperlt vom Morgentau; Der Blumenweid' entgegen Blöckt schon die Herd' im Tal, Und in dem Staube regen Sich Würmer ohne Zahl. ... Lobsing' ihm, meine Seele, Dem Gott, der Freuden schafft! Lobsing' ihm und erzähle Die Werke seiner Kraft! Hier von dem Blumenhügel Bis zu der Sterne Bahn Steig' auf der Andacht Flügel Dein Loblied himmelan!

La natura si risveglia a nuova vita si erge davanti a me, E brezze leggere percorrono l’innevata campagna. Il giovane tronco si spinge verso l’alto fuori dalle sue vecchie spoglie, L’inno degli uccelli riempie di vita il silenzio muto della foresta. ... ...
