Lyrics

Straight opening her fertile womb
The earth brings forth at God's command
Unnumbered living creatures
In perfect forms and fully grown
Triumphant, roaring
Stands the lion there
With a lightning leap the tiger appears
Prouding with branching head the nimble stag
With snorting and stamping, flying mane
Uprears in might the noble steed
In pleasant pastures quietly
The cattle graze on meadows green
And o'er the ground as growing there
Abide the fleecy, gentle sheep
As clouds of dust arise, in swarms assemble
The host of insects
In long dimension creeps
With sinuous trace the worm
Written by: Franz Joseph Haydn
