Gewaltig endet so das Jahr Mit goldnem Wein und Frucht der Gärten. Rund schweigen Wälder wunderbar Und sind des Einsamen Gefährten. Da sagt der Landmann: Es ist gut. Ihr Abendglocken lang und leise Gebt noch zum Ende frohen Mut. Ein Vogelzug grüßt auf der Reise. Es ist der Liebe milde Zeit. Im Kahn den blauen Fluß hinunter Wie schön sich Bild an Bildchen reiht - Das geht in Ruh und Schweigen unter.

Ainsi l'année finit puissamment Avec vin doré et fruits du jardin. Autour les forêts sont merveilleusement silencieuses Et sont les compagnes du solitaire. Alors le paysan dit : » c'est bien «. Vous, cloches du soir lentement et doucement, Donnez-nous jusqu'au bout un joyeux courage. Un vol d'oiseaux salue en partant. C'est le doux temps de l'amour. En descendant en barque le fleuve bleu, Comme les tableaux se succèdent avec beauté Puis s'éteignent dans le repos et le silence.
