Tage der Wonne, Kommt ihr so bald? Schenkt mir die Sonne Hügel und Wald? Reichlicher fließen Bächlein zumal, Sind es die Wiesen? Ist es das Tal? Unter des Grünen Blühender Kraft Naschen die Bienlein Summend vom Saft. Buntes Gefieder Rauschet im Hain, Himmlische Lieder Schallen darein! Mächtiger rühret Bald sich ein Hauch, Doch er verlieret Gleich sich im Strauch. Aber zum Busen Kehrt er zurück, Helfet ihr Musen Tragen das Glück! Leise Bewegung Bebt in der Luft, Reizende Regung Schläfernder Duft. Saget seit gestern Wie mir geschah Liebliche Schwestern, Liebchen ist da!
