Wo die Berge so blau
Aus dem nebligen Grau
Schauen herein,
Wo die Sonne verglüht,
Wo die Wolke umzieht,
Möchte ich sein!
Dort im ruhigen Tal
Schweigen Schmerzen und Qual.
Wo im Gestein
Still die Primel dort sinnt,
Weht so leise der Wind,
Möchte ich sein!
Hin zum sinnigen Wald
Drängt mich Liebesgewalt,
Innere Pein.
Ach, mich zög's nicht von hier,
Könnt ich, Traute, bei dir
Ewiglich sein!

Dove le montagne così azzurre
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the German (Deutsch)
Dove le montagne così azzurre
dal grigiore delle nebbie
guardano verso di noi,
dove il sole si spegne,
dove la nuvola si trasforma,
là vorrei essere!
Là, nella quieta valle
tacciono dolori e tormenti.
Dove fra le rocce
là, in silenzio la primula pensa,
spira così lieve il vento,
là vorrei essere!
Verso il bosco pieno di pensieri
mi spinge la forza d'amore,
l'intima pena.
Ah, ma non potrebbe allontanarmi da qui,
potrei stare, mia fedele,
per sempre con te!
