Herbststimmung
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der rauhe Wind weht durchs öde Feld,
gar traurig liegt vor mir die Welt,
und nichts kann mich erfreu'n.
Wenn schon der liebe Storch auch zieht,
der kalten Heimat nun etflieht,
muss ich dem Schmerz mich weih'n!

Autumn Song
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch) 
Now wintry blasts rash thro' grove and mead;
The world seems dark and sad indeed;
Ther's naught my heart can cheer.
Spring blossoms, summer birds are gone;
The stork his dismal home hath flown.
But gloom still hovers near.

Note: from the Moór score.
