Die Glocken läuten das Ostern ein
 (Sung text for setting by V. Nessler)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Die Glocken läuten das Ostern ein
In allen Enden und Landen,
Und fromme Herzen jubeln darein:
Der Lenz ist wieder erstanden!
 
Es atmet der Wald, die Erde treibt
Und kleidet sich lachend mit Moose,
Und aus den schönen Augen reibt
Den Schlaf sich erwachend die Rose.
 
Das schaffende Licht, es flammt und kreist
Und sprengt die fesselnde Hülle;
Und über den Wassern schwebt der Geist
Unendlicher Liebesfülle.
