Bald stößt vom Lande 
Das Schiff geschwinde,
Grausame Winde 
Reißen mich fort.
  Fahrwohl, Amanda,  
  Wir müssen scheiden!
  Gott wird uns Beiden 
  Gnädig sein. 
  Weine nicht, o Holde,
   ... 
  Kehr' ich nach Hause,
  Werd' ich dich frei'n.

Schon ruft der Schiffsherr,
An Bord zu gehen,
Dich noch zu sehen, 
Stell' ich mich taub.
  Fahrwohl, Amanda, etc.

Le bateau sera bientôt

(Sung text translation for setting by M. Bruch)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Le bateau sera bientôt
Vite poussé loin de la terre,
De cruels vents
M'emportent.
    Au revoir Amanda,
    Nous devons nous séparer !
    Dieu pour nous deux 
    Sera miséricordieux.
    Ne pleure pas ma douce,
    Non, ne pleure pas
    Quand je reviendrai à la maison,
    Je te marierai.

Le capitaine m'appelle
Pour monter à bord,
Pour te voir encore,
Je fais le sourd
    Au revoir Amanda, etc
