Bei dir allein empfind' ich, daß ich lebe, Daß Jugendmut mich schwellt Daß eine heit're Welt Der Liebe mich durchbebe; Mich freut mein Sein Bei dir allein! Bei dir allein weht mir die Luft so labend, Dünkt mich die Flur so grün, So mild des Lenzes Blüh'n, So balsamreich der Abend, So kühl der Hain, Bei dir allein! Bei dir allein verliert der Schmerz sein Herbes, Gewinnt die Freud an Lust! Du sicherst meine Brust Des angestammten Erbes; Ich fühl' mich mein Bei dir allein!

Solamente a tu lado siento que vivo, que el valor juvenil me inflama, que un alegre mundo de amor me embriaga; ¡mi ser se alegra solamente a tu lado! ¡Solamente a tu lado sopla para mí el aire tan refrescante, el valle me parece tan verde, tan dulces las flores de la primavera, tan balsámica la tarde, tan fresco el bosque, solamente a tu lado! ¡Solamente a tu lado pierde el dolor su amargura, se colma de felicidad la alegría! Tú confías a mi pecho la herencia que le es suya; ¡me siento yo mismo solamente a tu lado!
