by Robert Weber (1824 - 1896)

Im Gebirge
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schon ist der Tag erschienen,
Die Berge werden klar,
Und ob den Gletschern segelt
Ein sonnentrunk'ner Aar.

Aus blauer Tiefe läutet
Der Sonntag milden Gruß,
Sein Engel schwebt vorüber
Mit sel'gem Friedenskuß.

An grasigen Sonnenhängen
Klettern die Heerden umher,
Die Alpenrosen duften
Vom Silberthau noch schwer.

Ich schaue hinaus in die Frühe
Vom höchsten Felsenhaupt,
Und schwing' in die himmlischen Lüfte
Den Hut von Zweigen umlaubt.

Die Berge, die Gletscher, die Seeen,
Die Wiesen, die Büsche, der Wald,
Sie stehen vor meiner Seele
In ewiger Lichtgestalt.
