Bangt dir, mein Lieb? -- Ich bin ja bei dir!
Es braust das Meer und der Himmel ist dunkel. 
Siehst du des Leuchtthurms magisch Gefunkel? 
Bangt dir, mein Lieb? 

Bangt dir, mein Lieb? -- Du bist ja bei mir!
Die Wogen donnern, der Himmel erzittert! 
Ärmlicher Nachen! bist balde zersplittert! --
Bangt dir, mein Lieb? --

In a storm

(Sung text translation for setting by C. Loewe)

See original

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

Are you afraid, my love? I am with you!
The sea roars and the sky is dark
Do you see the lighthouse, its magic glow??
Are you afraid, my love? 

Are you afraid, my love? You are here with me!
The waves thunder, the sky trembles!
Wretched skiff soon to be splintered! --
Are you afraid, my love? --
                           "You are here with me!"
