Am schönen Ostseeufer Nun einsam sitz ich hier, Die lieben Wellen flüstern, Sie flüstern mir von dir, Von deiner süßen Stimme, Von deinem süßern Kuß Und aus der Ferne bringen Sie mir der Liebe Gruß. Noch aber drüben, wandelt's Wie Stimmen und Gesang, Und süßer Schauer wallet Den stillen Strand entlang.

At the beautiful shore of the Baltic I now sit here in solitude, The dear waves whisper, They whisper to me of you. They whisper of your sweet voice, Of your even sweeter kiss And from the distance they bring Love's greeting to me. Still, however, something is moving Like voices and song, And a sweet frisson passes Along the silent shore.
