Lindes Rauschen in den Wipfeln, Vöglein, die ihr fernab fliegt, Bronnen von den stillen Gipfeln, Sagt, wo meine Heimat liegt? Heut im Traum sah ich sie wieder, Und von allen Bergen ging Solches Grüßen zu mir nieder, Daß ich an zu weinen fing. Ach! hier auf den fremden Gipfeln: Menschen, Quellen, Fels und Baum - Wirres Rauschen in den Wipfeln Alles ist mir wie ein Traum! Muntre Vögel in den Wipfeln, Ihr Gesellen dort im Tal, Grüßt mir von den fremden Gipfeln Meine Heimat tausendmal!
F. Hensel sets stanza 2

Doux bruissements dans les cimes, Petits oiseaux qui s'envolent au loin, Sources des hauts sommets, Dites-moi, où est ma patrie ? Aujourd'hui, en rêve je la revoyais, Et de toutes les montagnes venaient Vers moi de telles salutations Que je me mis à pleurer. Ah, ici sur des sommets étrangers : Les hommes, sources, rochers, arbres - Le bruissement confus des cimes, Tout est pour moi comme dans un rêve ! Joyeux oiseaux dans les cimes, Vous compagnons là-bas dans la vallée Depuis ces sommets étrangers Saluez mille fois ma patrie.
