Lunz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Über die Berge
Zieht ihr fort;
Kommt an manchen
Grünen Ort,
Muß zurücke
Ganz allein;
Lebet wohl!
Es muß so seyn.
Scheiden,
Meiden,
Was man liebt,
O wie wird
Das Herz betrübt!
Wald und Hügel,
Seenspiegel -
Schwinden all';
Hör' verschwimmen
Eurer Stimmen
Wiederhall.
Scheiden,
Meiden,
Was man liebt,
O wie wird
Das Herz betrübt!

Confirmed with Gedichte von Johann Mayrhofer. Wien. Bey Friedrich Volke. 1824, pages 15-16.
