Mir ist so wohl, so weh
Am stillen Erlafsee.
Heilig Schweigen
In Fichtenzweigen.
Regungslos
Der blaue Schooß;
Nur der Wolken Schatten flieh'n
Überm dunklen Spiegel hin.
...
Frische Winde
Kräuseln linde
Das Gewässer;
Und der Sonne
Güldne Krone
Flimmert blässer.

Triste e felice a un tempo
sto presso il tranquillo lago Erlaf;
Solenne è il silenzio
fra i rami dei pini;
senza un movimento
gli abissi azzurri;
soltanto l'ombra delle nubi si muove
sullo specchio scuro;
