Der Sonntag ist gekommen, Ein Sträußchen auf dem Hut; Sein Aug ist mild und heiter, Er meint's mit allen gut. Er steiget auf die Berge, Er wandelt durch das Tal, Er ladet zum Gebete Die Menschen allzumal. Und wie in schönen Kleidern Nun pranget jung und alt, Hat er für sie geschmücket [Die Flur und auch den Wald]1. Und wie er allen Freude Und [Frieden]2 bringt und Ruh, So [ruf auch du nun]3 jedem "Gott grüß dich" freundlich zu.

Ha arribat el diumenge, un petit ram al capell; els seus ulls són dolços i alegres, ple de bones intencions envers tothom. Ell puja a la muntanya, camina per la vall, invita a la pregària a la gent de tot arreu. I perquè en llurs millors vestits adés llueixen joves i vells, ell ha ornat per a ells els camps i també els boscos. I perquè ell porta a tots joia i pau i serenitat, ara tu crida a tothom: “Que Déu vos guardi”, amicalment.
