Hoch über stillen Höhen
Stand in dem Wald ein Haus;
So einsam war's zu sehen,
Dort übern Wald hinaus.
Ein Mädchen saß darinnen
Bei stiller Abendzeit,
Tät seidne Fäden spinnen
Zu ihrem Hochzeitskleid.

Loin au‑dessus de hauteurs silencieuses
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Loin au-dessus de hauteurs silencieuses
Il y avait une maison dans la forêt ;
Elle était si solitaire,
Là-bas au-dessus de la forêt.
Une jeune fille y était assise
Par une calme soirée,
Elle filait un fil de soie
Pour sa robe de mariée.
