Du Ring an meinem Finger, Mein goldenes Ringelein, Ich drücke dich fromm an die Lippen, Dich fromm an das Herze mein. Ich hatt' ihn ausgeträumet, Der Kindheit friedlichen Traum, Ich fand allein mich, verloren Im öden, unendlichen Raum. Du Ring an meinem Finger, Da hast du mich erst belehrt, Hast meinem Blick erschlossen Des Lebens unendlichen Werth. Ich werd' ihm dienen, ihm leben, Ihm angehören ganz, Hin selber mich geben und finden Verklärt mich in seinem Glanz. Du Ring an meinem Finger, Mein goldenes Ringelein, Ich drücke dich fromm an die Lippen, Dich fromm an das Herze mein.

Ты, кольцо на моём пальце, Маленькое золотое кольцо. Я с благоговением прижимаю тебя к губам И к своему сердцу. Мне это снилось В мирном, сладком детском сне. Потом я просыпалась — одинокая, Затерянная в бесконечной пустоте. Ты, кольцо на моём пальце, Ты впервые научило меня, Как распахнуть взор навстречу Безграничной, бесценной жизни. Я хочу служить ему, жить для него Принадлежать ему, Всецело отдавать себя И вновь обретать, преображённую его сиянием. Ты, кольцо на моём пальце Маленькое золотое кольцо. Я с благоговением прижимаю тебя к губам И к своему сердцу.
