Süßer, goldner Frühlingstag! Inniges Entzücken! Wenn mir je ein Lied gelang, Sollt' es heut' nicht glücken? Doch warum in dieser Zeit An die Arbeit treten? Frühling ist ein hohes Fest: Laßt mich ruhn und beten!

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the capitalized word "über" becomes "Ueber", but this is often due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, since the lower-case version is not "ueber", so we use "Über".

4. Glück [sung text not yet checked]
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wie jauchzt meine Seele Und singet in sich! Kaum, daß ich's verhehle, So glücklich bin ich. Rings Menschen sich drehen Und sprechen gescheut, Ich kann nichts verstehen, So fröhlich zerstreut. - Zu eng wird das Zimmer, Wie glänzet das Feld, Die Täler voll Schimmer, Weit, herrlich die Welt! Gepreßt bricht die Freude Durch Riegel und Schloß, Fort über die Heide! Ach, hätt' ich ein Roß! - Und frag' ich und sinn' ich, Wie so mir geschehn? - Mein Liebchen herzinnig, Das soll ich heut' sehn.
