Kein Haus, keine Heimat,
Kein Weib und kein Kind,
So wirbl' ich, ein Strohhalm,
In Wetter und Wind!
Well' auf und Well' nieder,
Bald dort und bald hier;
Welt, fragst du nach mir nicht,
Was frag' ich nach dir?

Sale e scende l'onda,
ora qua e ora là;
mondo, se non mi chiedi niente,
che cosa chiedo a te?
