Oft denk' ich, sie sind nur ausgegangen, Bald werden sie wieder nach Hause gelangen, Der Tag ist schön, o sei nicht bang, Sie machen nur einen weiten Gang. Ja wohl, sie sind nur ausgegangen, Und werden jetzt nach Haus gelangen, O, sei nicht bang, der Tag ist schön, Sie machen den Gang zu jenen Höh'n. Sie sind uns nur voraus gegangen, Und werden nicht hier nach Haus verlangen, Wir holen sie ein auf jenen Höh'n Im Sonnenschein, der Tag is schön.

Often I think that they have only stepped out - and that soon they will reach home again. The day is fair - O don't be afraid - They are only taking a long walk. Yes: they have only stepped out and will now return home. O don't be anxious - the day is fair. They are taking a walk to those hills. They have simply gone on ahead: they will not wish to return home. We'll catch up to them on those hills. In the sunshine the day is fair.
