Wie schön bist du, du güldne Morgenröte, Wie feierlich bist du! Dir jauchzt in festlichen Gesang der Flöte Der Schäfer dankbar zu. Dich grüßt des Waldes Chor, melodisch singet Die Lerch' und Nachtigall, Und rings umher [vom Feld und Wald]1 erklinget Der Freude Widerhall.
1 Schubert (Alte Gesamtausgabe): "von Berg und Thal"

Hoe mooi ben jij, jij morgenrood goudkleurig, Hoe imposant ben jij! De herdersfluit blaast feestelijk en fleurig Voor jou een zangpartij. Jou groet het koor van 't woud, hoe heerlijk zingen Leeuw'rik en nachtegaal. En vol van vreugd langs berg en dalen swingen De echo's allemaal.
