"Sage doch, wird es denn heute nicht Tag? es dämmert so lange,
Und schon zu Hunderten, horch! singen die Lerchen im Feld."
Immer ja saugt ihr lichtbegieriges Auge die ersten
Strahlen hinweg, und so wächset nur langsam der Tag.

Au lever du jour
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
«Dis moi, le jour ne se lèvera-t-il donc pas aujourd'hui ? Le crépuscule est si long,
Et déjà écoute ! par centaine les alouettes chantent dans les champs.»
Toujours avides de lumières leurs yeux s'abreuvent
À l'arrivée des rayons, et ainsi croît lentement le jour.
