Wiederkehrend nach dem Vaterlande, Hofft' ich deine Lilienhand zu drücken, Traut're Bande Würden uns, so hofft' ich, dann beglücken, Wiederkehrend nach dem Vaterlande! Wehe mir, du bist vorangegangen Nach viel besser'm Vaterlande, o Teure! Welch Verlangen, Daß auch ich bald meinen Nachen steu're Nach viel besser'm Vaterland, o Teure!

In returning to the homeland, I had hoped to press your lily-white hand; Closer ties, I hoped, would then delight us, In returning to the homeland. Woe is me, you preceded me To a much better homeland, oh my treasured one! What longing That I too shall soon steer my craft To a much better homeland, oh my treasured one!
