Die Liebste hat mit Schweigen Das Fenster aufgetan, Sich lächelnd vor zu neigen, Daß meine Blick' es sahn, Wie mit dem wolkenlosen Blick einen Gruß sie beut, Da hat sie lauter Rosen Auf mich herab gestreut Sie lächelt mit dem Munde Und mit den Wangen auch; Da blüht die Welt zur Stunde Mir wie ein Rosenstrauch. Sie lächelt Rosen nieder, Sie lächelt über mich Und schließt das Fenster wieder, Und lächelt still in sich. Sie lächelt in die Kammer Mit ihrem Rosenschein; Ich aber darf, o Jammer, Darin bei ihr nicht sein. O dürft' ich mit ihr kosen Im Kämmerchen ein Jahr! Sie hat es wohl voll Rosen Gelächelt ganz und gar!

L'amata in silenzio spalanca la finestra della sua stanza con un sorriso si affaccia così che possa ammirarla. Poi con il suo sguardo sereno mi manda il suo saluto, e sparge sul mio capo i fiori del suo roseto. Dalle sue labbra, il sorriso, a tutto il suo volto si estende, Il mondo all'improvviso tutto di fiori risplende. Nella sua stanza ella ride come una rosa radiante; Ma, ahimè, non mi concede di poterle stare accanto. Potessi starle vicino un anno intero nella cameretta! Per certo con il suo sorriso l'avrà di rose riempita!
