Nimm sie hin denn, diese Lieder,
Die ich dir, Geliebte, sang,
Singe sie dann abends wieder
Zu der Laute süßem Klang.
Wenn das Dämmrungsrot dann ziehet
Nach dem stillen blauen See,
Und sein letzter Strahl verglühet
Hinter jener Bergeshöh;
Und du singst, was ich gesungen,
Was mir aus der vollen Brust
ohne Kunstgepräng erklungen,
Nur der Sehnsucht sich bewußt:
Dann vor diesen Liedern weichet
Was geschieden uns so weit,
Und ein liebend Herz erreichet
Was ein liebend Herz geweiht.

Toma, pues, estas canciones
Language: Spanish (Español) after the German (Deutsch)
Toma, pues, estas canciones,
que he cantado, amada, para ti.
Cántalas en la tarde,
al dulce sonido del laúd,
cuando el rojo crepúsculo se apaga
tras el tranquilo lago azul
y sus últimos rayos se extinguen
tras las cimas de las montañas.
Cantarás lo que he cantado,
lo que del fondo de mi pecho
brotó sin presunción de arte,
movido solo por la nostalgia.
Y ante estos cantos cederá
lo que tanto nos separa,
pues un amante corazón alcanza
lo que otro amante corazón le dedicó.
