Waldränder glühen golden, Ich geh den Weg allein, Den ich mit meiner Holden So vielmal ging zu zwein. In diesen guten Tagen Zerfließt mir Glück und Leid, Daran ich lang getragen, In Duft und Ferne weit. Die Bauernkinder springen Im Heidefeuerrauch; Da heb ich an zu singen Wie alle anderen Kinder auch.

Golden glow the edges of the forests, I wander the pathway alone, [The pathway] that many times I walked as a twosome with my lovely one. In these good days Joy and sorrow, Which I have borne for long time, Dissolve in scent and far distance. The farmers’ children leap about In the smoke of the heath fire; Then, like all other children as well, I begin to sing.
