Seltsam, im Nebel zu wandern!
Einsam ist jeder Busch und Stein,
Kein Baum sieht den andern,
Jeder ist allein.
Voll Freunden war mir die Welt,
Als noch mein Leben licht war;
Nun, da der Nebel fällt,
Ist keiner mehr sichtbar.

Étrange, de se promener dans le brouillard !
Chaque buisson, chaque caillou est isolé,
pas un arbre ne voit son voisin,
chacun est seul.
J'avais plein d'amis au monde
quand ma vie était encore lumineuse;
maintenant que le brouillard tombe
plus personne n'est visible.
