Sommermorgen

Frischer, tauiger Sommermorgen,
Wie dein erquickend Antlitz mir lacht! 
Tief in dem rauschendem Walde verborgen 
Sind schon die Vöglein jubelnd erwacht. 

Fern aus dem Moose wie duften die Rosen, 
Wie an dem Waldrand die Blumen der Au! 
Schau, mit den goldenen Ähren wie kosen 
Neckisch die Lüfte, blitzet der Thau!

O wie uns leuchtet das Grün aus dem Thale,
Blinket der Strom aus felsiger Kluft!  
Schwindelnde Höhen in rosigem Strahle, 
Hold umschleiert, schwebend in Duft!

 ...
