by Nikolaus Lenau (1802 - 1850)

Die Bäume blühn
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Bäume blühn
Die Vöglein singen,
Die Wiesen bringen
Ihr erstes Grün. 

Schier tuts mir leid,
Zu treten die Erden
Und ihr zu gefährden
Ihr neues Kleid. 

Sie hat nicht acht, 
Ob Knospenspringen
Und Frühlgngssingen
Mich traurig macht.
