Die Liebe hat gelogen,
Die Sorge lastet schwer,
Betrogen, ach, betrogen
Hat alles mich umher!

Die Wange stets herab,
Laß ab, [laß ab]3 zu klopfen,
[Laß ab, mein]4 Herz, laß ab!

Love has lied

Love has lied,
Worries burden me heavily;
I am deceived, alas! deceived
By everything around me!

Down my cheeks;
[Cease, cease your beating,
Cease, my heart, cease!]2
