Der Dämmerung Schein
Durchblick sic den Hain;
Hier, beim Geräusch des Wasserfalles,
Denk' ich nur dich, o du mein Alles!
Dein Zauberbild
Erscheint, so mild
Wie Hesper im Abendgolde,
Dem fernen Freund, geliebte Holde!
Er sehnt wie hier
Sich stets nach dir;
Fest, wie den Stamm die Eppichranke,
Umschlingt Dich liebend sein Gedanke.

La lueur du crépuscule
Illumine la lande ;
Ici, près du bruit de la cascade,
Je pense seulement à toi, ô toi, mon tout !
Ton image magique
Apparaît si douce,
Comme Hespéros dans l'or du soir,
À ton ami lointain, ma bien-aimée, mon amour !
Il soupire, comme ici,
Toujours après toi ;
Solides, comme les tiges de lierre sur un tronc,
Ses pensées grimpent pleines d'amour vers toi.
