Adler

Steig nur, Sonne,
Auf die Höhn!
Schauer wehn,
Und die Erde bebt vor Wonne.

Kühn nach oben
Greift aus Nacht
Waldespracht,
Noch von Träumen kühl durchwoben.

Und vom hohen
Felsaltar
Stürzt der Aar
Und versinkt in Morgenlohen.

Frischer Morgen!
Frisches Herz,
Himmelwärts!
Laß den Schlaf nun, laß die Sorgen!

by Josef Karl Benedikt von Eichendorff (1788-1857) , "Adler"
