Ich zieh' dahin! Ade, mein fröhlich Frankenland, Wo ich die liebste Heimath fand, Du meiner Kindheit Pflegerin. Ade, du Land, du schöne Zeit -- Mich trennt das Boot vom Glück so weit! Doch trägt's die Hälfte nur von mir: Ein Theil für immer bleibet dein, Mein fröhlich Land, der sage dir, Des Andern eingedenk zu sein! --

Ik zeg vaarwel, vaarwel! Vaarwel, mijn vrolijk Frankenland, Waarmee ik kreeg de diepste band, Jou dank ik jeugd en kinderspel! Vaarwel, mooi land, jij mooie tijd. Het schip dat van 't geluk mij scheidt Neemt van mijzelf de helft slechts mee; Een deel blijft hier, jou eeuwig trouw. 't Herinn're je dat overzee Het and're deel ook houdt van jou. Vaarwel! Vaarwel!
