It is time, O ye leaves, O ye leaves, on the treetops of morning! Laugh down the trees, that pastures may wake! It is time, O ye streams, O ye streams, on the hilltops of morning! Run down the hills, That the valleys may wake! It is time, O ye bells, O ye bells, in the grey spire of morning! Run down the spire, That the hamlet may wake!

Het is tijd, o blad'ren O bladeren, 's ochtends in de kruinen! Lach naar benee Laat de weiden ontwaken! Het is tijd, o stromen O stromen, 's ochtends op de toppen! Stroom naar benee Laat de dalen ontwaken! Het is tijd, o klokken O klokken, 's ochtends in grijze spitsen! Klink naar benee Laat de dorpen ontwaken!
