Der Müller.
Wo ein treues Herze
In Liebe vergeht,
Da welken die Lilien
Auf jedem Beet.
Da muß in die Wolken
Der Vollmond gehn,
Damit seine Thränen
Die Menschen nicht sehn.
Da halten die Englein
Die Augen sich zu,
Und schluchzen und singen
Die Seele zu Ruh'.

El moliner:
On un cor fidel
es consumeix d'amor,
allà es marceixen els lliris
en cada planter.
Allà, la lluna s'ha d'amagar
darrere els núvols,
per què els humans no puguin veure
les seves llàgrimes.
I els àngels
es tapen els ulls
i ploren i canten
per calmar l'ànima.
