Wehe dem Fliehenden Welt hinaus ziehenden! - Fremde durchmessenden, Heimath vergessenden, Mutterhaus hassenden, Freunde verlassenden Folget kein Segen, ach! Auf ihren Wegen nach! Herze, das sehnende, Auge, das thränende, Sehnsucht, nie endende, Heimwärts sich wendende! Busen, der wallende, Klage, verhallende, Abendstern, blinkender, Hoffnungslos sinkender! Lüfte, Ihr säuselnden, Wellen sanft kräuselnden, Sonnenstrahl, eilender, Nirgend verweilender: Die mir mit Schmerze, ach! Dies treue Herze brach, - Grüßt von [dem]1 Fliehenden, Welt hinaus ziehenden!

Malheur au fuyard, Cheminant de par le monde ! Parcourant les terres étrangères, Oubliant sa patrie, Haïssant sa maison natale, Abandonnant ses amis Poursuivant son chemin, hélas ! Sans aucune bénédiction. Cœur languissant, Yeux larmoyants, Nostalgie infinie, Se retournant vers la patrie ! Poitrine brûlante, Plainte au loin expirant, Étoile du soir scintillante, Se noyant sans espoir ! Vents frémissants Vagues moutonnantes, Rayons de soleil pressants, Ne tardez pas : À celle qui avec douleur, hélas ! À brisé un cœur fidèle - Portez le salut de la part du fuyard, Cheminant de par le monde !
