Sie (Vom Balcone) Meinen Kranz hab' ich gesendet, Aber nicht, dich zu beglücken; Schweigend sollt' er dir verkünden Meiner Seele [bangen]1 Schmerz. Unsre Roße stehn gesattelt, Fort nach Schiras eilt der Vater; Horch, er ruft! -- Von der Geliebten Nimm ein zitternd Lebewohl.

She (From the balcony) I did send my wreath, But not to make you happy; Silently it should tell you of The fearful grief in my soul. Our horses stand saddled, My father is hurrying away to Shiraz; Listen, he's calling! – From your beloved Take a trembling farewell.
