Wie so innig, möcht' ich sagen, Sich der meine mir ergiebt, Um zu lindern meine Klagen, Daß er nicht so innig liebt. Will ich's sagen, so entschwebt es; Wären Töne mir verliehen, Flöss' es hin in Harmonieen, Denn in jenen Tönen lebt es. Nur die Nachtigall kann sagen, Wie er innig sich mir giebt, Um zu lindern meine Klagen, Daß er nicht so innig liebt.

M’agradaria dir que fervent és ell per rendir-se als meus desigs, per apaivagar els meus planys, i que no m’estima pas amb passió. Si ho dic, la sensació s’esvaneix; si el do de la música m’hagués estat concedit, s’esmunyiria de mi en harmonies, car viu en cada tonalitat. Només el rossinyol pot dir com ferventment es rendeix per apaivagar els meus planys i que no m’estima pas amb passió.
