Habet Acht Auf der Jagd! Mancher ist zu Grund gegangen, Weil der Nachbar sich verfangen, Und ein Lauf ist los gegangen! Auf der Jagd Habet Acht! Habet Acht Auf der Jagd! Mancher schoss den Nachbar nieder Denn es fahren Aug' und Glieder In der Hitze hin und wieder, Habet Acht Auf der Jagd! Habet Acht Auf der Jagd! Rasch ist noch nicht unbesonnen, Blinde Hast hat nie gewonnen, Halb gezielt ist ganz zerronnen -- Auf der Jagd Habet Acht! Habet Acht Auf der Jagd! Des geschossnen Kameraden Denke jeder jetzt beim Laden; Helfe Gott dem Kameraden, Der vollbracht! Gute Nacht. Gute Nacht! Wer vollbracht! Bei des Mannes schönstem Drange, Bei der Schüsse lust'gem Klange, Traf ihn rasch des Todes Schlange! Gute Nacht! Wer vollbracht!
R. Schumann sets stanzas 1, 3-5

Take care On the chase! Many a person has perished Because his neighbour became entangled, And a gun went off! Take care On the chase! Take care On the chase! Many a man shot his neighbour For eye and limb jerk Back and forth in the heat of the chase, Take care On the chase! Take care On the chase! Quickly does not mean imprudently, Blind haste has never succeeded, To take aim by halves is to miss completely. Take care On the chase! Take care On the chase! Of the comrade who was shot Everyone should think while loading; May Got help the comrade, Whose life is ended! Good night! Good night To him whose life has ended! In the midst of man's finest pursuits, By the merry sounds of the shots, The snake of death struck him! Good night To him whose life has ended!
