Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA POR
Ich denke dein,
Wenn durch den Hain
Der Nachtigallen
Akkorde schallen!
Wann denkst du mein?

Ich denke dein
Im Dämmerschein
Der Abendhelle
Am Schattenquelle!
Wo denkst du mein?

Ich denke dein
Mit süßer Pein,
Mit bangem Sehnen
Und heißen Thränen!
Wie denkst du mein?

O denke mein,
Bis zum Verein
Auf besserm Sterne!
In jeder Ferne
Denk' ich nur dein!
