Alt-Solo Im Waldesgrün am stillen See, Da seufzt ein Jüngling im schweren Weh: Gepackt von der tötenden Seuche, stahl Er her sich, zu enden seine Qual. Er, dem im Leben, wo er stand, Sich jedes Herz einst zugewandt, Stirbt jetzt, als hätt' er keinen Freund, Hier ungesehn und unbeweint. Der Jüngling Ach, einen Tropfen nur aus dem See, Zu kühlen das fiebrisch brennende Weh, Ach, einen Tropfen nur aus der Flut, Zu kühlen die fiebrische Glut!

Contralto Entre el follaje del bosque, a las orilla del lago, solloza un joven con profundo dolor. Contagiado de la mortal epidemia, busca poner fin a su dolor. Él, que antes doquiera se encontraba atraía todos lo corazones, muere ahora, cual si no tuviera amigos, aquí oculto y sin que nadie lo llore. El joven ¡Ay, solo una gota del lago, para refrescar el dolor de la fiebre que me quema, solo una gota del lago, para refrescar mi febril ardor!
