"Meine Seele hört im Sehen,
Wie, den Schöpfer zu erhöhen,
Alles jauchzet, alles lacht.
Hört nur, des erblühnden Frühlings Pracht
Ist die Sprache der Natur,
Die sie deutlich durchs Gesicht
Allenthalben mit uns spricht."

"[My soul in hearing doth see
How, to exalt the creator,
Everything rejoices, everything laughs,
Do but hear: the burgeoning springs beauty
Is the voice of nature,
Which clearly through our eyes
Everywhere speaks to us.]"

(Translation by Derek Yeld)
