Wohlauf! noch getrunken den funkelnden Wein! Ade nun, ihr Lieben! geschieden muß sein. Ade nun, ihr Berge, du väterlich' Haus! Es treibt in die Ferne mich mächtig hinaus. Die Sonne, sie bleibet am Himmel nicht stehn, Es treibt sie, durch Länder und Meere zu gehn. Die Woge nicht haftet am einsamen Strand, Die Stürme, sie brausen mit Macht durch das Land. Mit eilenden Wolken der Vogel dort zieht Und singt in der Ferne ein heimatlich' Lied, So treibt es den Burschen durch Wälder und Feld, Zu gleichen der Mutter, der wandernden Welt. Da grüßen ihn Vögel bekannt überm Meer, Sie flogen von Fluren der Heimat hierher; Da duften die Blumen vertraulich um ihn, Sie trieben vom Lande die Lüfte dahin. Die Vögel, die kennen sein väterlich' Haus, [Die Blumen einst]1 pflanzt' er der Liebe zum Strauß, Und Liebe, die folgt ihm, sie geht ihm zur Hand: So wird ihm zur Heimat das ferneste Land.

Avanti! Ancora ebbro del vino splendente, addio miei cari, dobbiamo separarci, addio montagne, e tu casa paterna! Una forza mi spinge prepotente via. Il sole non resta fermo nel cielo, è spinto ad andare per terre e per mari. L'onda non si ferma sulla spiaggia solitaria. Le tempeste urlano con forza per la contrada. Con le nuvole che corrono se ne va l'uccello, e canta lontano un canto familiare, così è spinto il ragazzo per boschi e per campi, per paragonare alla madre il mondo del suo viaggio. Qui lo salutano i noti uccelli sul mare, che volarono qui dalle pianure natie, qui profumano i fiori amici intorno a lui, gli portano l'aria di casa. Gli uccelli, che conoscono la sua casa paterna, i fiori, che lui piantò per offrirli all'amata, e l'amore lo segue, lo tiene per mano, così gli diventa patria la terra più lontana.
