Er ist gekommen in Sturm und Regen
 (Sung text for setting by G. Göhler)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT CHI CHI DUT ENG FRE SPA
Er ist gekommen
In Sturm und Regen,
Ihm schlug beklommen 
Mein Herz entgegen.
Wie konnt' ich ahnen, 
Daß seine Bahnen
Sich einen sollten meinen Wegen?

Er ist gekommen 
In Sturm und Regen,
Er hat genommen 
Mein Herz verwegen.
Nahm er das meine? 
Nahm ich das seine?
Die beiden kamen sich entgegen.

Er ist gekommen 
In Sturm und Regen.
Nun ist entglommen 
Des Frühlings Segen.
Der Freund zieht weiter, 
Ich seh' es heiter,
Denn er bleibt mein auf allen Wegen.
