Sie Es rauschet das Wasser Und bleibet nicht stehn; Gar lustig die Sterne Am Himmel hin gehn; Gar lustig die Wolken Am Himmel hin ziehn; So rauschet die Liebe Und fähret dahin. Er Es rauschen die Wasser, Die Wolken zergehn; Doch bleiben die Sterne, Sie wandeln und gehn. So auch mit der Liebe, Der treuen, geschicht, Sie wegt sich, sie regt sich, Und ändert sich nicht.

Zij: Het water wil stromen En blijft niet graag staan; Heel blij volgen sterren Hun hemelse baan; Heel blij volgen wolken Hun hemelse spoor; Zo stroomt ook de liefde En gaat er vandoor. Hij: De wateren ruisen, De wolken, zij gaan; Toch blijven de sterren, Zij schuiven en gaan. Dit is wat met liefde Die trouw is, geschiedt, Zij weegt zich, beweegt zich, Maar wijzigt zich niet.
