Wir wandelten, wir zwei zusammen, ich war so still und du so stille, ich gäbe viel, um zu erfahren, was du gedacht in jenem Fall. Was ich gedacht, unausgesprochen verbleibe das! Nur Eines sag' ich: So schön war alles, was ich dachte, so himmlisch heiter war es all'. In meinem Haupte die Gedanken, sie läuteten wie gold'ne Glöckchen: so wundersüß, so wunderlieblich ist in der Welt kein and'rer Hall.

Passeggiavamo, noi due insieme, Io ero così tranquillo e tu così tranquilla, Darei molto per sapere A cosa tu pensassi in quel momento. A cosa io pensassi, che rimanga inespresso! Dirò solo una cosa: Così bello era ciò a cui pensavo, Era tutto di una serenità celestiale. Nella mia testa i pensieri Risuonavano come campanelli d'oro Così meravigliosamente dolci e soavi Che al mondo non v'è un'eco simile.
