by Walther von der Vogelweide (1170? - 1228?)

Uns hât der winter geschât über al
Language: Mittelhochdeutsch 
Uns hât der winter geschât über al:
heide unde walt sint beide nû val,
dâ manic stimme vil suoze inne hal. 
sæhe ich die megde an der stâze den bal
werfen! sô kæeme uns der vogele schal.

Möhte ich verslâfen des winters zît!
wache ich die wîle, sô han ich sîn nît,
daz sîn gewalt ist sô breit und sô wît. 
weizgot er lât ouch dem meien den strît:
sô lise ich bluomen dâ rîfe nû lît.
