by Christian Morgenstern (1871 - 1914)

Siehe, auch ich ‑ lebe
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Also ihr lebt noch, alle, alle, ihr,
am Bach ihr Weiden,
und am Hang ihr Birken,
und fangt von neuem an,
euch auszuwirken,
und wart so lang nur Schlummernde, gleich - mir.

Siehe, du Blume hier, du Vogel dort,
sieh, wie auch ich von neuem mich erhebe...
Voll innern Jubels treib ich Wort auf Wort...
Siehe, auch ich, ich schien nur tot. Ich lebe!
