Mir ward gesagt, du reisest in die Ferne.
Ach, wohin gehst du, mein geliebtes Leben?
Den Tag, an dem du scheidest, wüßt' ich gerne;
Mit Thränen will ich das Geleit dir geben.
Mit Thränen will ich deinen Weg befeuchten --
Gedenk' an mich, und Hoffnung wird mir leuchten!
Mit Thränen bin ich bei dir allerwärts -- 
Gedenk' an mich, vergiß es nicht, mein Herz!

M’han dit que vols marxar molt lluny de viatge.
Ai, on vols anar, estimat amor meu?
M’agradaria saber el dia que marxaràs;
amb llàgrimes et donaré escorta.
Amb llàgrimes mullaré el teu camí –
Pensa en mi i m’il·luminarà l’esperança!
Amb llàgrimes seré amb tu a tot arreu –
Pensa en mi, no m’oblidis, cor meu!
