by Richard von Kralik (1852 - 1934)

Du bist alles
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Du bist Freude, du bist Wonne,
du bist Liebe, du bist Treu',
du bist Wärme, [Licht und]1 Sonne,
du bist Frühling, du bist Mai.

Du bist Schöne, du bist Tugend,
du bist Stärke, du bist Glück,
du bist Born der [ewigen]2 Jugend,
du Verhängnis und Geschick.

Du bist Herrin, bist die Hehre,
[die du völlig mich begabst]3,
du bist Vaterland und Ehre,
[du mein Kaiser und mein Papst]4.

Du bist Himmel, heilig, heilend,
du bist Göttin, fehllos rein,
du bist Muse, Lied erteilend,
du bist Alles, du bist mein!
