Wie traulich war das Fleckchen, Wo meine Wiege ging, Kein Bäumchen war, kein Heckchen, Das nicht voll Träume hing. Wo nur ein Blümchen blühte, Da blühten gleich sie mit, Und alles sang und glühte Mir zu bei jedem Schritt. Ich wäre nicht gegangen, Nicht für die ganze Welt! - Mein Sehnen, mein Verlangen, Hier ruht's in Wald und Feld.

Que entranyable era el lloc on gronxava el meu bressol, no hi havia cap arbre, cap barder, que no estigués ple de somnis. Arreu on sortia una flor també florien els somnis, i tot cantava i refulgia per a mi a cada pas. No me n’hagués anat per res del món! – La meva nostàlgia, el meu deler, romanen aquí, al bosc i als camps.
