Ich denke dein,
Wenn durch den Hain
Der Nachtigallen
Accorde 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
Mit heißen Thränen!
Wie denkst du mein?

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

Denken aan

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Lang)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Mijn geest vul jij,
Als 'k buiten vrij
De nachtegalen
Hoor 'madrigalen'!
Denk jij ook aan mij?
 
Mijn geest vul jij
Des avonds bij
Het brongeklater
Aan 't schemerwater
Waar denk jij aan mij?
 
Mijn hart maak jij
Vol pijn toch blij,
Met bang verlangen,
Betraande wangen!
Hoe denk jij aan mij?
 
O denk aan mij,
Tot w' allebei
Eén hemel erven.
Waar 'k ook mag zwerven,
Mijn ziel ben jij!
