Entflieh' mit mir und sei mein Weib,
Und ruh' an meinem Herzen aus;
Fern in der Fremde sei mein Herz
Dein Vaterland und Vaterhaus.
Gehst du nicht mit, so sterb' ich hier
Und du bist einsam und allein;
Und bleibst du auch im Vaterhaus,
Wirst doch wie in der Fremde sein.
Entflieh' mit mir und sei mein Weib,
Und ruh' an meinem Herzen aus;
Fern in der Fremde sei mein Herz
Dein Vaterland und Vaterhaus.

Fuggi con me e sii la mia sposa,
e sopra il mio cuore riposa;
Il mio cuore, lontano e in terra straniera,
sia, per te, patria e paterna dimora.
Se non vieni con me, mi tocca morire,
e tu abbandonata e sola dovrai rimanere,
e se pure resterai nella casa paterna
sarà come stare in terra straniera.
Fuggi con me e sii la mia sposa,
e sopra il mio cuore riposa;
Il mio cuore, lontano e in terra straniera,
sia, per te, patria e paterna dimora.
