Wo die Berge so blau Aus dem nebligen Grau Schauen herein, Wo die Sonne verglüht, Wo die Wolke umzieht, Möchte ich sein! Dort im ruhigen Tal Schweigen Schmerzen und Qual. Wo im Gestein Still die Primel dort sinnt, Weht so leise der Wind, Möchte ich sein! Hin zum sinnigen Wald Drängt mich Liebesgewalt, Innere Pein. Ach, mich zög's nicht von hier, Könnt ich, Traute, bei dir Ewiglich sein!

Kur kalnų žydruma Pro rūkų pilkumas Žvelgia kažkur, Ten, kur saulė pradings, Debesėliai užslinks, Noriu aš būt. Šičia slėny ramiam Dings skausmai ir kančia, Tarp akmenų Žydi gėlės ramiai, Pučia vėjas švelniai, Noriu čia būt. Paslaptingan miškan Meilės kančios nuves Kančios pabus, Neišeisiu iš čia, Su tavim visada Galėčiau būt.
