Über die Berge Zieht ihr fort; Kommt an manchen Grünen Ort, Muß zurücke Ganz allein; Lebet wohl! Es muß so seyn. Scheiden, Meiden, Was man liebt, Ach wie wird Das Herz betrübt! O Seenspiegel, Wald und Hügel Schwinden all'; Hör' verschwimmen Eurer Stimmen Wiederhall. Lebt wohl! Klingt klagevoll. Ach wie wird Das Herz betrübt! Scheiden, Meiden, Was man liebt.
Note: Schubert received Mayrhofer's texts generally in handwriting; the printed edition of Mayrhofer's poems appeared much later and presents the texts usually in a revised version. This version does not appear to exist in published form apart from Schubert's song.

Over de bergen trek je weg, Komt op menige groene plek; Teruggaan moet ik heel alleen, Dus vaarwel! Zo viel de steen. Lijden, scheiden van wie men houdt, Ach, dat maakt het hart benauwd! O merenspiegel, bos en heuvels wijken al; 'k Hoor verklinken jullie helder stemgeschal. Vaarwel! klinkt klagelijk, Ach, dat maakt het hart benauwd: Laten gaan van wie men houdt! Vaarwel! klinkt klagelijk.
