Simon
 Seht, wie der strenge Winter flieht! 
 Zum fernen Pole zieht er hin.
 Ihm folgt, auf seinen Ruf,
 der wilden Stürme brausend Heer
 mit gräßlichem Geheul.

Lukas
 Seht, wie vom schroffen Fels der Schnee
 in trüben Strömen sich ergießt!

Hanne
 Seht, wie vom Süden her, 
 durch laue Winde sanft gelockt,
 der Frühlingsbote streicht!

L'introduction dépeint le passage de l'hiver au printemps

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Simon
 Regarde, comment l'hiver sévère s'enfuit !
 Il part pour le pôle lointain.
 À son appel il est suivi
 Par l'armée mugissante des tempêtes sauvages
 Avec des hurlements horribles.

Lucas
 Regarde, comment du rocher escarpé la neige
 Se déverse en torrents troubles !

Anne
 Regarde, comment du sud
 Attirée par un vent tiède et doux
 Le messager du printemps arrive !

Subtitle: "Ouverture et récitatif"
