Nimm sie hin denn, diese Lieder, Die ich dir, Geliebte, sang, Singe sie dann abends wieder Zu der Laute süßem Klang. Wenn das Dämmrungsrot dann ziehet Nach dem stillen blauen See, Und sein letzter Strahl verglühet Hinter jener Bergeshöh; Und du singst, was ich gesungen, Was mir aus der vollen Brust ohne Kunstgepräng erklungen, Nur der Sehnsucht sich bewußt: Dann vor diesen Liedern weichet Was geschieden uns so weit, Und ein liebend Herz erreichet Was ein liebend Herz geweiht.

Neem ze aan dan, deze lied'ren, Die 'k voor jou, geliefde, zong. Laat opnieuw ze 's avonds klinken, Zoetgevooisd, met luit en tong. Als het scheem'ringsrood dan wegtrekt Naar het stille blauwe meer, En zijn laatste straaltje uitdooft Achter gindse bergen, teer, En jij zingt wat 'k heb gezongen, Wat eerst aan mijn volle borst Ongekunsteld is ontsprongen, Uit verlangens sterke dorst: Dan zal voor die lied'ren wijken Wat zo ver ons beiden scheidt, Zal een minnend hart bereiken Waaraan 't zich heeft toegewijd.
Note for stanza 4, line 4: Bij Beethoven worden herhalingen ingevoegd, o.a. ‘Ja, waaraan ’t zich, waaraan ’t zich ...’
