by Karl Joachim ("Achim") Friedrich Ludwig von Arnim (1781 - 1831)

Das Lerchlein in den Lüften schwebt und...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Das Lerchlein in den Lüften schwebt und singt den Himmel an,
Vom grünen Feld es sich erhebt und tröst den Ackermann,
Gar hoch thut es sich schwingen, daß mans kaum sehen mag,
Im Kreis herum thuts singen, lobt Gott den ganzen Tag.
