Leise, rieselnder Quell, ihr wallenden, flispernden Pappeln,
Euer Schlummergeräusch wecket die Liebe nur auf.
Linderung sucht' ich bei euch, und sie zu vergessen, die Spröde;
Ach! und Blätter und Bach seufzen: [Elisa! mir zu.]1

静静流淌的泉水，翻腾起伏、低语的白杨，
你的小睡只能会唤醒我的真爱。
我向你寻求解脱，并忘记她脆弱的人；
哦！ 叶和溪叹了口气：【艾丽莎！ 过来。]
