Stell auf den Tisch die duftenden Reseden,
  Die letzten roten Astern trag herbei,
Und laß uns wieder von der Liebe reden,
    Wie einst im Mai.

Gib mir die Hand, daß ich sie heimlich drücke
  Und wenn man's sieht, mir ist es einerlei,
Gib mir nur einen deiner süßen Blicke,
    Wie einst im Mai.

Es blüht und duftet heut auf jedem Grabe,
  Ein Tag im Jahr ist ja den Toten frei,
Komm an mein Herz, daß ich dich wieder habe,
    Wie einst im Mai.

O Dia de Todos os Santos

(Sung text translation for setting by R. Strauss)

See original

Language: Portuguese (Português) after the German (Deutsch)

Dispõe sobre a mesa resedas perfumadas,
Traz aqui os últimos ásteres vermelhos,
E falemos novamente de amor,
Como outrora, em Maio.

Dá-me a mão, para que a segure secretamente,
E se alguém nos vir, de que me importa?
Dá um só de teus doces olhares,
Como outrora, em Maio.

Flores adornam hoje cada sepultura, exalando sua fragrância,
Um dia no ano se outorga liberdade aos mortos,
Venha junto ao meu coração, para que eu te tenha novamente,
Como outrora, em Maio.
