Horch, der Wind klagt in den Zweigen traurig sacht; süßes Lieb, wir müssen Scheiden: gute Nacht. Ach wie gern in deinen Armen ruhte ich, doch die Trennungsstunde naht, Gott schütze dich. Dunkel ist die Nacht, kein Sternlein spendet Licht; süßes Lieb vertrau auf Gott und weine nicht; führt der liebe Gott mich einst zu dir zurück, bleiben ewig wir vereint in Liebesglück.

Écoute, le vent gémit dans les branches tristement et doucement ; Doux amour, nous devons nous séparer : bonne nuit. Ah, comme je reposais volontiers dans tes bras, Mais l'heure de la séparation approche, Dieu te protège. Sombre est la nuit, aucune petite étoile ne donne de lumière ; Doux amour, fais confiance à Dieu et ne pleure pas ; Le bon Dieu me ramènera un jour vers toi, Nous resterons unis pour toujours dans la joie de l'amour.
