by Otto Julius Bierbaum (1865 - 1910)

Sommer
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Singe, meine liebe Seele,
denn der Sommer lacht,
Alle Farben sind voll Feuer,
alle Welt ist eine Scheuer,
alle Frucht ist aufgewacht.

Singe, meine liebe Seele,
denn das Glück ist da.
Zwischen Ähren, welch ein Schreiten!
Flimmernd tanzen alle Weiten,
Gott singt selbst Hallelujah.
