Du mit der Stirne voller Licht, Du mit den wunderbaren Braunaugen und den seidnen Haaren, Ich kenne dich! Du aber kennst mich nicht. Du mit dem klaren Angesicht, Du Zarte mit deinen leisen, Fremdländischen, süßen Liederweisen, Ich liebe dich! Du aber kennst mich nicht.

You with your brow full of light, You with the wondrous Brown eyes and the silky hair, I know you! But you do not know me. You with the clear visage, You delicate one with your quiet, Foreign, sweet song melodies, I love you! But you do not know me.
