Die Peri Verstoßen! Verschlossen Aufs neu das Goldportal! Gerichtet! Vernichtet, Der Hoffnung letzter Strahl! So soll ich's nimmer finden, Das edle, köstliche Gut, Weh mir, ich fühl' ihn schwinden, Den hohen Mut; Doch will ich nicht ruhn, will ohne Rast Von einem Pol zum andern schreiten, Durchpilgern will ich alle Weiten Bis ich das Gut, bis ich's erfaßt, Das mir das höchste Glück verheißt, Das, Eden, mir dein Tor erschleußt. Und wär's bewacht in Grau'n und Nacht, Tief in der Erde tiefsten Gründen, Ich will, ich muß das Kleinod finden!

La Peri ¡Rechazada! ¡De nuevo está cerrada la dorada puerta! ¡Condenada! ¡Perdido está el último rayo de esperanza! Jamás encontraré el noble y precioso don, ay de mí, siento que me falta el suficiente valor; pero no descansaré, sin reposo de uno al otro polo viajaré, peregrinaré hasta lo más alejado hasta que el bien consiga que la máxima dicha me prometa y del Edén las puertas me franquee. Y así esté escondido en el horror y en la noche, en lo más profundo de la Tierra, he de encontrar la joya.
