Ihr fernen Heimathöhen, 
Du stilles, kleines Haus,
Du Berg, von dem ich gesehen
Jeden Frühling ins Land hinaus,
Mutter, Freunde und Brüder,
An die ich so oft gedacht,
Es/Ihr grüßt mich Alle(s) wieder
In stiller Mondesnacht.

Heut im Traum sah ich euch wieder,
Und von allen Bergen ging
Solches Grüßen zu mir nieder,
Daß ich an zu weinen fing.

You distant heights of my homeland,
You quiet little house,
You mountain, from which I saw
every Spring go out into the land;
mother, friends and brother,
of whom I have so often thought -
you all greet me once again
in the silent moonlit night.

 ... 

Today in a dream I saw you again,
And from every mountain 
Such greetings came down to me,
That I began to weep.
