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!

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 !
