Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT ENG FRE ITA
Tenor-solo:
Ins Haus des Totengräbers
Fallt durch die Fensterlein,
Umrankt vom Efeugitter
Der holde Morgenschein.
Es weckt mit leisem Grusse
Der Greis die Pilgerin.
Rose:
Hab' Dank für deine Güte,
Nun will ich weiter zieh'n,
Und woll' die Hande legen
Aufs Haupt, mein Vater, mir,
Beglückt mit deinem Segen,
Nur so geh' ich von dir.
Totengräber:
O glücklich, dreimal glücklich ist,
Wer dich als seine Tochter küsst,
Hör' meine Bitte: folge mir,
Ich gebe treue Eltern dir.
Tenor-solo:
Die Rose sinkt an seine Brust,
Sie grüsst des Lebens erste Lust.

Nella casa del seppellitore
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the German (Deutsch)
Tenore:
Nella casa del seppellitore,
penetra, attraverso la finestra,
circondata dall'edera rampicante,
la bella luce mattutina.
Con una parola dolce il vecchio
risveglia la giovane pellegrina.
Rosa:
Vi ringrazio per la vostra bontà,
ora debbo proseguire il mio viaggio,
e se vorrete, padre mio,
posare le mani sul mio capo,
allora, lieta per la vostra benedizione,
potrò prendere congedo da voi.
Seppellitore:
Felice, mille volte felice,
è chi ti può baciare come una figlia,
ascolta la mia preghiera:vieni con me,
io ti darò genitori devoti.
Tenore:
La rosa si china sul suo petto
e saluta la prima gioia della sua vita.
