Frühlingslied by Friedrich Gustav Jansen — Lyrics
Was ist das für ein Ahnen
so heimlich süß in mir?
Was ist das für ein Mahnen:
Heraus, heraus, mit dir!
Du Träumer aus der Wintergruft:
Heraus! heraus zur Frühlingsluft!
Heraus, heraus, heraus!
Der rote Finke picket
an's Fenster wunderlich
und blickt mich an und nicket,
als grüßt' er freundlich mich,
und rief: du finst'res Menschenkind,
Heraus! zum frischen Morgenwind!
Heraus, heraus, heraus!

About Frühlingslied
Friedrich Gustav Jansen's Frühlingslied opens with a sense of burgeoning excitement, the four male voices of this TTBB setting building from a gentle awakening to an insistent call to embrace the new season. The German text is secular, describing the inner stirring and the irresistible urge to leave winter confinement behind. It paints vivid images of birds, fish, and the awakening landscape, all beckoning the dreamer to join the 'spring air' and the 'fresh morning wind'. The music mirrors this sentiment with its energetic and joyous character, perfect for a male choir eager to express the vibrant spirit of spring.
