Rote Abendwolken ziehn am Firmament, Sehnsuchtsvoll nach dir, Mein Lieb, das Herze brennt, Himmel strahlt in glühnder Pracht, Und ich träum bei Tag und Nacht Nur allein von dem süßen Liebchen mein.

Le rosse nuvole della sera viaggiano in cielo, Sono pieno di desiderio per te, Amore mio, e il cuore mi brucia, Irradia il cielo un ardente splendore E io sogno di giorno e di notte Del mio dolce tesoro soltanto.
