by Constant von Wurzbach (1818 - 1893)

Im Walde die Amsel
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Im Walde die Amsel,  
Die Lerch' in der Luft,
Vom Harze der Tannen,
Vom Flieder der Duft,
Die Schatten im Grunde,  
Die Sonn' in den Höh'n,
O Erde wie bist du
So wunderbar schön! 

Allüberall der Freude
Entzückende Spur;
O öffne dich,  Herz, 
Dieser Gottesnatur!    
Wie Noah die Taube  
Auf Niewiederkehr,
Lass fliegen den Schmerz
Über Berge und Meer.
