by (Georg) Adolf Glaßbrenner (1810 - 1876)

Komm' aus der engen Stadt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Komm' aus der engen Stadt,
Auf daß die Felder blühen;
Blick' auf den Dornenstrauch,
Damit die Rosen glühen;
Tritt in den weißen Schnee,
Auf daß die Knospen springen;
Schau' diese Bäume an,
Damit die Vögel singen;
Blick' auf das starre Eis,
Daß Leben wird im Bache;
Falt' Deine schönen Hände,
Daß die Natur erwache;
O hauche sanft sie an,
Daß grünt und blüht die Erde!
Breit' Deine Arme aus,
Damit es Frühling werde!
