Lirik
In splendour bright is rising now the sun and darts his rays a joyful, happy spouse, a giant proud and glad to run his measur'd course. With softer beams and milder light steps on the silver moon thro' silent night. The space immense of th'azure sky, a countless host of radiant orbs adorns, and the sons of God announced the fourth day in song divine, proclaiming thus His power.
Written by: Franz Joseph Haydn
