Es steht ein Berg in Feuer, In feurigem Morgenbrand, Und auf des Berges Spitze Ein Tannbaum überm Land. Und auf dem höchsten Wipfel Steh ich und schau vom Baum, O Welt, du schöne Welt, du, Man sieht dich vor Blüten kaum!

A mountain rises on fire, In the flaming blaze of morning, And on the mountain’s summit, A fir tree stands high above the land. And on the very highest branch, I stand, gazing out from the tree, O world, you beautiful world, you, One can hardly see you for all the blooms!
