Lass' das Zagen, trage mutig Deine Sorgen, deine Qual, Sei die Wunde noch so blutig, Heilen wird sie doch einmal. Unter tiefer Eisesdecke Träumt die junge Knospe schon, Daß der Frühling sie erwecke Mit der Lieder holdem Ton. Nur empor den Blick gewendet, Und durch düst'res Wolkengrau Bricht zuletzt, daß es dich blendet, Glorreich noch des Himmels Blau. Aber auch die trüben Stunden Und die Tränen, die du weinst, Glaub', wie Freuden, die entschwunden, Süßer scheinen sie dir einst. Und mit Wehmut, halb nur heiter, Scheidest du für immerdar Von dem Leiden, dem Begleiter, Der so lange treu dir war.

Deixa el teu titubeig, suporta amb coratge les teves inquietuds, el teu dolor, encara que la ferida sigui tan sagnant, algun dia es guarirà. Sota una profunda capa de glaç, la jove poncella ja somia que la primavera la desperti amb el so encisador dels cants. Aixeca tan sols l’esguard vers les alçàries i, a través de l’ombrívola grisor dels núvols, espuntarà finalment i t’enlluernarà la gloriosa blavor del cel. Però també les hores tristes i les llàgrimes que vesses, creu-me, com les joies que s’han esvanit, un dia et semblaran més dolces. I amb melangia, només mig asserenat, t’acomiadaràs per sempre del sofriment, el company que durant tant de temps t’ha estat fidel.
