Language: German (Deutsch) 
Hoch auf dem alten Thurme steht
Des Helden edler Geist,
Der, wie das Schiff vorübergeht,
Es wohl zu [fahren]1 heißt.

"Sieh, diese [Senne]2 war so stark,
Dieß Herz so fest und wild,
Die Knochen voll von Rittermark,
Der Becher angefüllt;

"Mein halbes Leben stürmt' ich fort,
Verdehnt' die Hälft' in Ruh,
Und du, du Menschen-Schifflein dort,
Fahr' immer, immer zu!"

Confirmed with Goethe's Werke. Vollständige Ausgabe letzter Hand. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J.G.Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1827, page 109; and with Goethe's Werke. Erster Band. Stuttgart und Tübingen, in der J. G. Cotta'schen Buchhandlung. 1815, page 99.

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the capitalized word "über" becomes "Ueber", but this is often due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, since the lower-case version is not "ueber", so we use "Über".

1 Flügel, Gaugler, Hasse, Radecke: "Wipfeln" (according to the incipits given in Hofmeister) ; further changes may exist not noted above.

Über allen Wipfeln
Ist Ruh',
Balde
Ruhest du auch.

2. Sopra ogni vetta
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Sopra ogni vetta
È pace,
Su ogni albero
senti tu
appena un respiro;
Gli uccelli  tacciono nel bosco,
aspetta, presto
avrai pace anche tu!

3. Tu sei come un fiore
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
    Tu sei come un fiore,
così soave, bella e pura;
io ti guardo, e di malinconia
si commuove il mio cuore.

    E' come se stendessi
le mani sul tuo capo,
pregando Dio che ti conservi
così pura e bella e soave.
