| 1 | 1 | Weeping, sighing by the Rhine calm and bright | |
| 2 | 2 | I wander'd and thought on my own true knight, | |
| 3 | 3 | when hark! martial music! I glow'd with delight | |
| 4 | 4 | and cried: 't is my hero, return'd from the fight! | |
| 5 | 5 | ||
| 6 | 6 | Alas! They brought tidings of woe: He was slain | |
| 7 | 7 | and I doom'd forever to heart-rending pain. | |
| 8 | 8 | Then I sought the cold cloister, cut off my fair hair | |
| 9 | 9 | and doun'd sadly the veil, the black veil of despair. | |
| 10 | 10 | ||
| 11 | 11 | He came too late, found me heav'n's plighted bride; | |
| 12 | 12 | ah, would, ere breathing that vow I had died! | |
| 13 | 13 | Glance for glance, weeping, and sigh for sigh we gave; | |
| 14 | 14 | would both we were sleeping in grief's best home, the grave! | |
| 15 | Wir schwebten in lüsternen Kreisen; | ||
| 16 | Da sangen die Lerchen die Weisen, | ||
| 17 | Da zirpeten Täucher im Rohr. | ||
| 18 | Wir schwebten auf strömenden Flächen; | ||
| 19 | Da rauschten Gemurmel von Bächen, | ||
| 20 | Da säuselten Lüftchen ans Ohr. | ||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | Wir spielten im treibenden Nachen, | ||
| 23 | Wir gaben uns manches zu lachen, | ||
| 24 | Wir hatten des Spieles nicht Rast. | ||
| 25 | Wir ließen die Hörner erklingen, | ||
| 26 | Die Mädchen begonnen zu singen, | ||
| 27 | So hielt ich mein Lottchen umfaßt. | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | Das waren mir selige Tage! | ||
| 30 | Du kleine Gefällige, sage: | ||
| 31 | Sie waren so selig auch mir! | ||
| 32 | Dann such' ich das Schifflein mir wieder! | ||
| 33 | Dann setz' ich dich neben mir nieder, | ||
| 34 | Und fahre durchs Leben mit dir. |
