I skoven er der så stille; der rasler kun det gule blad; nu kommer den stund, vi ville som venner skilles ad. Skoven luder med brinken brat. Vindfælden vakler, når vinden ta'r fat. Nu kommer vintrens den lange hvile og længere nat.

Ganz stille wird's nun im Walde; es raschelt nur das gelbe Blatt; Die Stunde des Abschieds balde uns, Freund, geschlagen hat. Stumm wird der Abhang vom Wald bewacht. Wind hat zu Boden den Baum gebracht. Lang bringt der Winter nun Ruh im Walde und längere Nacht.
