Ich führt' dich oft spazieren
In Wintereinsamkeit,
Kein Laut ließ sich da spüren,
Du schöne, stille Zeit!
Lenz ist's nun, Lerchen singen
Im Blauen über mir,
Ich weine still - sie bringen
Mir einen Gruß von dir.

I often took you for a walk
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
I often took you for a walk
In the loneliness of winter,
No sound let itself be heard then,
You beautiful, quiet time!
It is now spring, larks sing
In the blue heavens above me,
I weep quietly - they bring me
A greeting from you.
