Im Garten am Seegestade Uralte Bäume stehn, In ihren hohen Kronen Sind kaum die Vögel zu sehn. Die Bäume mit hohen Kronen, Die rauschen Tag und Nacht, Die Wellen schlagen zum Strande, Die Vöglein singen sacht. Das gibt ein Musizieren So süß, so traurig bang, Als wie verlorner Liebe Und ewiger Sehnsucht Sang.

Bij zee in één der tuinen Staan bomen, eeuwenoud, En in hun hoge kruinen Je haast geen vogels aanschouwt. De bomen met hoge kruinen, Zij ruisen dag en nacht, De golven rollen het strand op, De vogels zingen zacht. Dat geeft een musiceren Zo zoet, zo droevig bang, Als van verloren liefde En eeuwige heimweezang.
