Es ist ein Reihen geschlungen, Ein Reihen auf dem grünen Plan, Und ist ein Lied gesungen, Das hebt mit Sehnen an, Mit Sehnen, also süße, Daß Weinen sich mit Lachen paart: Hebt, hebt im Tanz die Füße Auf lenzeliche Art.

A roundelay is winding its course, A roundelay on the green plain, And a song is being sung, [A song] that begins with longing, With longing so sweet That weeping is paired with laughter; Lift, lift your feet in the dance In a spring-like manner.
