Auf den Blumen flimmern Perlen, Philomelens Klagen fließen; Muthiger nun dunkle Erlen In die [blauen]1 Lüfte sprießen. Und dem Thale, so erblichen, Kehret holde Röthe wieder, [Und in duftigen Gerüchen]2 Baden Vögel ihr Gefieder. Hat die Brust sich ausgewittert, Seitwärts lehnt der Gott den Bogen - Und sein golden Antlitz zittert Reiner auf versöhnten Wogen.

Parels glinst'ren op de bloemen, Philomele zingt weer klagend, In de reine luchten priemen Donk're elzen haast uitdagend. En in 't dal ook, dat vergeelde, Zie 'k het lieve rood terugkeren, In de geur'ge bloesemweelde Baden vogels nu hun veren. Als zijn bui is uitgedonderd, Zet de god zijn boog op aarde, En zijn gouden aanschijn vlondert Reiner op verzoende baren.
