Morgens steh' ich auf und frage:
Kommt feins Liebchen heut?
Abends sink' ich hin und klage:
Aus blieb sie auch heut.
 
In der Nacht mit meinem Kummer
lieg' ich schlaflos, lieg ich wach;
träumend, wie im halben Schlummer,
träumend wandle ich bei Tag.

's Morgens sta ik op en vraag ik

(Sung text translation for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

's Morgens sta ik op en vraag ik:
Komt mijn lief een keer?
's Avonds val ik neer en klaag ik:
Weg bleef zij, alweer.
 
In de nacht wil de slaap niet komen:
'k Heb geen uitzicht,  hoop;
Overdag loop 'k dwaas te dromen,
Dromend ik de dag doorloop.
