Im Walde blüht der Seidelbast, Im Graben liegt noch Schnee; Das du mir heut' geschrieben hast, Das Brieflein tat mir weh. Jetzt schneid' ich einen Stab im Holz; Ich weiß ein ander Land, Da sind die Jungfern nicht so stolz Dem Lieben abgewandt. Im Walde blüht der Seidelbast, Kein Brieflein tut mir weh, Und das du mir geschrieben hast, Schwimmt draußen auf dem See, Schwimmt draußen auf dem Bodensee, Ja draußen auf dem See.

Le daphné fleurit dans la forêt, La neige recouvre le fossé ; Ce que tu m'as écrit aujourd'hui, La petite lettre, m'a fait mal. Je me taille maintenant un bâton de bois ; Je connais un autre pays où les filles ne sont pas si fières pour décliner l'amour. Le daphné fleurit dans la forêt, Aucune petite lettre ne me fait mal, Et celle que tu m'as écrite Flotte au large, sur le lac, Flotte au large sur le lac de Constance, Oui, au large, sur le lac.
