Morgen muß ich fort von hier
Und muß Abschied nehmen;
O du allerschönste Zier,
Scheiden das bringt Grämen.
Da ich dich so treu geliebt
Über alle Maßen,
Soll ich dich verlassen.
Wenn zwei gute Freunde sind,
Die einander kennen,
Sonn' und Mond bewegen sich,
Ehe sie sich trennen.
Noch viel größer ist der Schmerz,
Wenn ein treu geliebtes Herz
In die Fremde ziehet.
...
Küsset dir ein Lüftelein
Wangen oder Hände,
Denke, daß es Seufzer sein,
Die ich zu dir sende:
Tausend schick' ich täglich aus,
Die da wehen um dein Haus,
Weil ich dein gedenke.

Domani me ne devo andare via
e devo darti l'addio.
O tu, preziosissimo tesoro,
separarsi è un gran dolore,
poi che io ti ho amato
con immensa fedeltà,
e ti devo lasciare.
Quando ci sono due buoni amici,
in piena confidenza,
devono smuoversi il sole e la luna,
prima che si separino.
Ancora più grande è la pena
quando un fido cuore amato
se ne va lontano.
