by Mary, Queen of Scots (1542 - 1586)
Translation by Gisbert, Freiherr von Vincke (1813 - 1892)

Klage IV
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the French (Français) 
 Nichts von den Dingen allen,
 wie schön sich's immer bot,
 Nichts will mir mehr gefallen,
 das Herz ist kalt und tot.
 Glück kann ich nicht ersehnen,
 in Kummer froh und Tränen!

 Verklingen laß die Klagen,
 mein Lied, du kannst auf's Neu'
 nur stets das Eine sagen:
 Ist Liebe wahr und treu,
 wird nie der Trennung Leiden
 das Herz vom Herzen scheiden.
