Noch ahnt man kaum der Sonne Licht
Language: German (Deutsch)
Noch ahnt man kaum der Sonne Licht, Noch sind die Morgenglocken nicht Im finstern Tal erklungen. Wie still des Waldes weiter Raum! Die Vöglein zwitschern nur im Traum, Kein Sang hat sich erschwungen. Ich hab' mich längst ins Feld gemacht, Und habe schon dies Lied erdacht, Und hab' es laut gesungen

Nog is het licht van de zon amper te...
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)
Nog is het licht van de zon amper te bespeuren, Nog heeft het eerste klokgelui niet in het duistere dal weerklonken. Hoe stil is de uitgestrektheid van het woud! De vogeltjes kwetteren alleen in hun droom, geen zang is opgestegen. Maar ik heb me al lang naar buiten gerept, en dit lied al verzonnen, en het uit volle borst gezongen.
