    Sie trugen ihn auf der Bahre bloß,
    Leider ach, leider, den Liebsten:
    Manche Thräne fiel in des Grabes Schoß; -
Fahr' wohl, meine Taube!

   Und kommt er nimmermehr?
     ... 
       Er ist todt, o weh!
       In dein Totbett geh',
    Er kommt dir nimmermehr.
    Sein Bart war weiss wie Schnee,
    Sein Haupt wie Flachs dazu.
       Er ist hin, er ist hin,
       Kein Trauern bringt Gewinn:
    Mit seiner Seele Ruh'!
Und mit allen Christenseelen! darum bet' ich! --
Gott sei mit euch!

El portaren damunt el baiard,
malauradament, ai las, el meu estimat:
moltes llàgrimes caigueren al faldar de la tomba;
adéu, adéu colom meu!

I no tornarà mai més?
I no tornarà mai més?
Ell és mort, ai de mi!
Jau al seu llit mortuori,
no tornarà mai més al teu costat.
La seva barba era blanca com la neu,
els seus cabells com el lli,
ens ha deixat, ens ha deixat,
el dol no serveix de res:
pau per a la seva ànima!
I per a totes les ànimes cristianes! Jo prego per això! 
Que Déu sigui amb vosaltres!
