Noch singt den Widerhallen Der Knabe sein Gefühl; Die Elfe hat Gefallen Am jugendlichen Spiel. Es glänzen seine Lieder Wie Blumen rings um ihn; Sie gehn mit ihm wie Brüder Durch stille Haine hin. Er kommt zum Völkerfeste, Er singt im Königssaal, Ihm staunen alle Gäste, Sein Lied verklärt das Mahl; Der Frauen Schönste krönen Mit lichten Blumen ihn; Er senkt das Aug in Tränen, Und seine Wangen glühn.

Nog zingt voor d' echoklanken De knaap met passie, fel; De elf, zij schept behagen In 't jeugdig tonenspel. Ze schitteren, zijn lied'ren Als bloemen, één voor één; Zij gaan met hem als broeders Door stille bossen heen. Hij komt op volksfestijnen, Zingt in de koningszaal, Verbluffend alle gasten; Zijn lied fleurt op het maal. De mooiste vrouwen kransen Met bloemen licht zijn hoofd; Betraand slaat hij het oog neer, Zijn wang is vurig rood.
