Tenor-solo: Ins Haus des Totengräbers Fallt durch die Fensterlein, Umrankt vom Efeugitter Der holde Morgenschein. Es weckt mit leisem Grusse Der Greis die Pilgerin. Rose: Hab' Dank für deine Güte, Nun will ich weiter zieh'n, Und woll' die Hande legen Aufs Haupt, mein Vater, mir, Beglückt mit deinem Segen, Nur so geh' ich von dir. Totengräber: O glücklich, dreimal glücklich ist, Wer dich als seine Tochter küsst, Hör' meine Bitte: folge mir, Ich gebe treue Eltern dir. Tenor-solo: Die Rose sinkt an seine Brust, Sie grüsst des Lebens erste Lust.

Tenore: Nella casa del seppellitore, penetra, attraverso la finestra, circondata dall'edera rampicante, la bella luce mattutina. Con una parola dolce il vecchio risveglia la giovane pellegrina. Rosa: Vi ringrazio per la vostra bontà, ora debbo proseguire il mio viaggio, e se vorrete, padre mio, posare le mani sul mio capo, allora, lieta per la vostra benedizione, potrò prendere congedo da voi. Seppellitore: Felice, mille volte felice, è chi ti può baciare come una figlia, ascolta la mia preghiera:vieni con me, io ti darò genitori devoti. Tenore: La rosa si china sul suo petto e saluta la prima gioia della sua vita.
