Original text and translations
English text
Fair are the meadows,
Fair are the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming
Which summer brings;
Cheered by the flowers,
Scenting the breezes,
Charmed by the warbler,
Sweetly he sings.
Beautiful nature,
Robed in thy treasure,
All things to cheer us,
Beautiful things.
Fair is the sunshine,
Fair is the moonlight,
And the bright stars
Above that we see;
Beautiful noonday,
Beautiful twilight,
Sweetest of concord,
Sweet melody.
