In aller Früh, ach, lang vor Tag, Weckt mich mein Herz, an dich zu denken, Da doch gesunde Jugend schlafen mag. Hell ist mein Aug' um Mitternacht, Heller als frühe Morgenglocken: Wann hätt'st du je [am Tage]1 mein gedacht? Wär' ich ein Fischer, stünd' ich auf, Trüge mein Netz hinab zum Flusse, Trüg' herzlich froh die Fische zum Verkauf. In der Mühle, bei Licht, der Müllerknecht Tummelt sich, alle Gänge klappern; So rüstig Treiben wär' mir eben recht! Weh, aber ich! o armer Tropf! Muß auf dem Lager mich müßig grämen, Ein ungebärdig Mutterkind im Kopf.

Molt aviat, abans que es faci de dia, el meu cor em desperta per pensar en tu, quan un jove sa encara estaria dormint. Desperts estan els meus ulls a mitjanit, més desperts que les campanes del matí: quantes vegades durant el dia has pensat en mi? Si jo fos un pescador, em llevaria i portaria la meva xarxa al riu, després, amb cor alegre, duria el peix al mercat. Al molí, amb llum, el mosso del moliner s’afanya, tots els engranatges xerriquen; una activitat vigorosa com aquesta seria apropiada per a mi! Però, ai de mi! Oh pobre talòs! M’haig de lamentar ociós al llit, un cap de rebec emmarat.
