In allen Fernen Wölbt sich ein Haus, [Üb'rall aus]1 Sternen Schau'n Englein [r'aus, ]2 [Wo nur]3 die Myrthe blüht, Heimath ist nah, [Wo nur]3 die Traube glüht, Vaterhaus da! -- Auf [alle Hügel]4 Giesst sich die Flut, [Vöglein]5 schwingt Flügel]6 Überall gut; Über den Fernen fort Wölbt sich ein Haus, Aus allen Sternen dort Schau'n Englein 'raus. --

In all the far distances Arches a house, [Everywhere from the stars]1 Angels peek out, [Wherever]2 the myrtle blooms, Home is near! [Wherever]2 the grape glows, Is my paternal house! -- [Upon]3 all the hilltops, The waters pour down, [Little]4 birds spread their wings Everywhere easily! Above the far distances, A house ever arches, From every star there Angels peek out!
