Morgengruß
 (Sung text for setting by V. Tomášek)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ihr Vögelein, 
so zart und fein,
was singet ihr 
zum Morgen mir?

„Wir singen dir 
von uns'rer Zier,
vom Liederschall
der Nachtigall;

vom kühlen Hain, 
vom Quell so rein,
vom Blümlein blau 
auf grüner Au,

auch singen wir 
von Nächten dir,
wie da sich's ruht 
in Liebesglut

und wie es sei 
dem Vöglein frei
in reiner Luft 
und süßem Duft.“

Dank, Vögelein, 
so zart und fein,
schön singet ihr 
zum Morgen mir.
