 ... 

Kein Hochgewild ich fahen kann,
Das muß ich oft entgelten;
Noch halt ich stets auf Jägers-Bahn,
Wiewohl mir Glück kommt selten:
Mag ich nicht han ein Hochwild schön,
So laß ich mich begnügen,
Am Hasenfleisch, nichts mehr ich weiß,
Das mag mich nicht betrügen.

Je brandis mon cor dans la vallée de larmes

(Sung text translation for setting by T. Streicher)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

 ... 

Je ne peux chasser aucune bête noble,
C'est pourquoi je dois souvent expier,
Pourtant je suis constamment les sentiers des chasseurs,
Bien que ma chance soit rarement là :
Si je ne peux pas avoir un veau cerf,
Alors je me satisferais
D'un lièvre, je ne demande rien de plus,
Cela ne me frustrera pas.
