Guten Morgen, schöne Müllerin! Wo steckst du gleich das Köpfchen hin, Als wär' dir was geschehen? Verdrießt dich denn mein Gruß so schwer? Verstört dich denn mein Blick so sehr? [So]1 muß ich wieder gehen. O laß mich nur von ferne stehn, Nach deinem lieben Fenster sehn, Von ferne, ganz von ferne! Du blondes Köpfchen, komm hervor! Hervor aus eurem runden Thor, Ihr blauen Morgensterne! Ihr schlummertrunknen Äugelein, Ihr thaubetrübten Blümelein, Was scheuet ihr die Sonne? Hat es die Nacht so gut gemeint, Daß ihr euch schließt und bückt und weint Nach ihrer stillen Wonne? Nun schüttelt ab der Träume Flor, Und hebt euch frisch und frei empor In Gottes hellen Morgen! Die Lerche wirbelt in der Luft, Und aus dem tiefen Herzen ruft Die Liebe Leid und Sorgen.
J. Lang sets stanza 1

Kalēmera ōraia mylōnoy! Giati chamēlōneis amesōs to kephalaki, San na su echei symbei kati? Se dysarestei loipon o chairetismos mu toso poly? Se enochlei loipon to blemma mu toso poly? Tote mallon prepei na xanaphygō. Ach, ase me tulachiston na stekomai apo makria, Pros to agapēmeno su parathyro na koitazō, Apo makria, apo makria teleiōs! Esy xantho kephalaki, emphanisu! Emphanisteite apo tēn strongylē pylē sas, Eseis galana prōina asteria! Eseis methysmena apo ton ypno matakia, Eseis drososkepasmena luludakia, Giati phobosaste ton ēlio?
