Der Jüngling: Hier muß ich sie finden! Ich sah sie verschwinden, Ihr folgte mein Blick. Sie kam mir entgegen, Dann trat sie verlegen Und schamrot zurück. Ist's Hoffnung, sind's Träume? Ihr Felsen, ihr Bäume, Entdeckt mir die Liebste, Entdeckt mir mein Glück!

The Youth: Here I must find her! I saw her disappear, You followed my gaze. She came on towards me, Then she stepped back, embarrased And blushing. Is it hope, are these dreams? You rocks, you trees, Reveal to me my dearest one, Reveal to me my happiness!
