Aus der Heimat hinter den Blitzen rot
Language: German (Deutsch)
Aus der Heimat hinter den Blitzen rot Da kommen die Wolken her, Aber Vater und Mutter sind lange tot, Es kennt mich dort [keiner]1 mehr. Wie bald, wie bald kommt die stille Zeit, Da ruhe ich auch, und über mir [Rauschet]2 die schöne Waldeinsamkeit, Und keiner [mehr kennt mich auch]3 hier.
H. Eisler sets stanza 1

De mi patria, tras el rojo del rayo
Language: Spanish (Español) after the German (Deutsch)
De mi patria, tras el rojo del rayo, de ahí vienen las nubes, pero padre y madre hace tiempo que murieron. Ya nadie me conoce allí. ¡Cuán pronto, cuán pronto llega el tiempo del descanso! También yo reposo allí y sobre mí susurra la hermosa soledad del bosque. Y ya nadie me conoce aquí tampoco.
