Die zwei blauen Augen von meinem Schatz, Die haben mich in die weite Welt geschickt. Da mußt' ich Abschied nehmen vom allerliebsten Platz! O Augen blau, warum habt ihr mich angeblickt? Nun hab' ich ewig Leid und Grämen. Ich bin ausgegangen in stiller Nacht Wohl über die dunkle Heide. Hat mir niemand Ade gesagt. Ade! Mein Gesell' war Lieb' und Leide! Auf der Straße steht ein Lindenbaum, Da hab' ich zum ersten Mal im Schlaf geruht! Unter dem Lindenbaum, Der hat seine Blüten über mich geschneit, Da wußt' ich nicht, wie das Leben tut, War alles, alles wieder gut! Alles! Alles, Lieb und Leid Und Welt und Traum!

Min skatts to blå øyne har sendt meg langt ut i den vide verden. Der måtte jeg ta avskjed med dette mitt aller kjæreste sted! Å øyne blå, hvorfor så dere på meg? Nå skal jeg ha evig lidelse og sorg. Jeg gikk ut i den stille natten langt over de mørke heiene. Ingen bød meg farvel. Farvel! Mine følgesvenner var kjærlighet og lidelse. Ved veien står det et lindetre, der falt jeg for første gang i rolig søvn! Under lindetreet, som lot sine blomster snø over meg, Der visste jeg ikke hvordan verden fortsatte, [...] Alt! Alt; kjærlighet og lidelse og verden og drømmer!
