Our translations: ENG
Und könnt' ich auch erwecken Dich, Ich wollt' es doch nicht thun; Kein Weh soll fürder schrecken Dich, Du sollst nun ewig ruhn. Ich will Dir nimmer klagen nun, Was auch mich trifft fortan; Mein Schicksal will ich tragen nun, So still wie Du's gethan.
K. Reinecke sets stanzas 1, 2, 1
