Auf einen Todtenacker Hat mich mein Weg gebracht. Allhier will ich einkehren: Hab' ich bei mir gedacht. Ihr grünen Todtenkränze Könnt wohl die Zeichen sein, Die müde Wandrer laden In's kühle Wirthshaus ein. Sind denn in diesem Hause Die Kammern all' besetzt? Bin matt zum Niedersinken, [Und]1 tödtlich schwer verletzt. O unbarmherz'ge Schenke, Doch weisest du mich ab? Nun weiter denn, nur weiter, Mein treuer Wanderstab!

Tot by ’n dodeakker het my die pad gelei. Hiér is waar ek wil kuier, so dink ek toe by my. Sou hierdie dodekranse die tekens wees, miskien, wat moeë stappers uitnooi, die koele herberg in? Maar al die huis se kamers is lank reeds ingeneem – ek staan ..., en staar ..., en steier en stort doodmoeg ineen. Wil jy my nogtans wegwys, genadelose plek? Dan, verder, stapper, verder, hervat jou bitter trek!
