Wenn ein müder Leib begraben, Klingen Glocken ihn zur Ruh, Und die Erde schließt die Wunde Mit den schönsten Blumen zu. Wenn die Liebe wird begraben, Singen Lieder sie zur Ruh, Und die Wunde bringt die Blumen -- Doch das Grab erst schließt sie zu.

Quan un cos cansat és enterrat, les campanes toquen per al seu repòs, i la terra tanca la ferida amb les més belles flors. Quan l’amor és enterrat, sonen cançons per al seu repòs, i la ferida porta flors, però només la tomba la tancarà.
