Various translations available, but this is what they are singing: The earth adorned in verdant robe Sends praises upward surging, While soft winds breathe on fragrant flowers From winter now emerging. The sun shines bright Gives warmth and light To budding blossoms tender, Proclaiming summer's splendour. From out the wood, the birds now sing And each its song now raises, To join with all the Universe In voicing thankful praises. With hope and joy Their songs employ A rapturous exultation In praise of God's creation. O God, amid these joys of life, Creation's glory beaming, Grant us the grace to keep your word And live in love redeeming. All flesh is grass, The flowers fade, And time is fleeting ever; God's word remains forever.
The earth adorned in verdant dress Sends praises upward surging, While soft winds fragrant flow'rs caress, From winter's dark emerging. And sunshine bright Gives warmth and light To budding blossoms tender, Proclaiming summer's splendor. From out the wood spry birds now sing. As each its tribute raises, It joins their choir and takes to wing In voicing thankful praises. With hope and joy Their songs employ A rapturous exultation In praise of God's creation. O God, amidst your joyous gifts, Creation's glory beaming, Do grant us grace and life that lifts Us up in love redeeming. All flesh is hay, Blooms die away, While time all bonds will sever; God's word is here forever.
