In den Wipfeln frische Lüfte, Fern melod'scher Quellen Fall Durch die Einsamkeit der Klüfte, Waldeslaut und Vogelschall, Scheuer Träume Spielgenossen, Steigen all' beim Morgenschein Auf des Weinlaubs schwanken Sprossen Dir [in's]1 Fenster aus und ein. Und wir nah'n noch halb in Träumen Und wir thun in Klängen kund, Was da draußen in den Bäumen Singt der weite Frühlingsgrund. Regt der Tag erst laut die Schwingen: Sind wir Alle wieder weit -- Aber tief im Herzen klingen Lange nach noch Lust und Leid.
W. Killmayer sets lines 9-16

In de bomen frisse winden, Ver weg zang van waterval, Door de eenzaamheid der kloven Woudgeruis en vogelbal, ’n Vriendenschaar van schuwe dromen Stijgt op in het morgenlicht Op gewiegde wingerdranken Naar jouw venster, zwaar en licht. En wij staan, nog half in dromen, En wij brengen, vol van geest, Wat daarbuiten in de bomen Zingt het wijde lentefeest. Als de dag verheft zijn vleugels, Zijn wij weg weer, heel de jeugd; Maar in onze harten klinken Lang nog na verdriet en vreugd.
