Wie blüht es im Tale
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE
Wie blüht es im Tale,
Wie grünt's auf den Höh'n!
Und wie ist es doch im Freien,
Im Freien so schön!
Es ladet der Frühling,
Der Frühling uns ein;
Nach der Weidenflöte sollen
Wir springen zum Reih'n.
Wer wollte nicht tanzen
Dem Frühling zu lieb,
Der den schlimmen, langen Winter
Uns endlich vertrieb?
So kommet, so kommet
Ins Freie hinaus!
Wann die Abendglocke läutet,
Geht's wieder nach Haus.

Out into the open air!
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
How the valley is blooming,
How the heights are greening up!
And how beautiful it is
Out in the open air, the open air!
Spring is inviting,
Spring is inviting us,
To the sound of the willow whistle
We are to leap in a roundelay.
Who would not want to dance
For spring's sake?
Spring who for us finally banished
The dreadful, long winter.
So come, so come
Out into the open air!
When the evening bell tolls,
We shall return home!
