Wir wollen wie der Mondenschein Die stille Frühlingsnacht durchwachen, Wir wollen wie zwei Kinder sein. Du hüllst mich in dein Leben ein Und lehrst mich so wie du zu lachen. Ich sehnte mich nach Mutterlieb Und Vaterwort und Frühlingsspielen, Den Fluch, der mich durchs Leben trieb, Begann ich, da er bei mir blieb, Wie einen treuen Feind zu lieben. Nun blühn die Bäume seidenfein Und Liebe duftet von den Zweigen. Du mußt mir Mutter und Vater sein Und Frühlingsspiel und Schätzelein Und ganz mein eigen.

我们要像月光安定 守望着春天夜的寂静, 我们要像两个儿童。 把我纳入你的人生, 教我像你一样的笑声。 我渴望母亲的爱抚, 父亲的话和春的游戏, 驱使我一生的诅咒 自从他和我在一处, 就开始像爱忠诚之敌。 如丝花朵树上绽放, 树枝散发着爱的气息。 你一定是我的亲爹娘, 春的游戏和小宝藏, 都属我自己。
