Horch es klagt die Flöte wieder
Und die kühlen Brunnen rauschen,
Golden wehn die Töne nieder,
Stille,  ... , laß uns lauschen!

Holdes Bitten, mild Verlangen,
Wie so süß zum Herzen es spricht!!
Durch die Nacht die mich umfangen,
Blickt zu mir der Töne Licht.

Serenata
 (Sung text translation for setting by J. Brandts-Buys)
 See original
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Escucha, vuelve el lamento de la flauta
y las frescas fuentes susurran, 
el viento trae una brisa de dorados sonidos
Silencio, silencio, oigámoslo atentos.

Ruegos amables, tiernos anhelos
¡Cuán dulces hablan al corazón!
A través de la noche que me tiene cautiva
Mirándome está la luz de los sonidos.
