Ich wandere einsam
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Ich wandere einsam,
Dann ahn ich dich,
Es rauscht im Baume,
Dann hör' ich dich.
Ich schließ die Augen,
Dann auch im [Traume]1
Hör' ich dich flüstern,
Wie Laub am [Baum]2.

I wander lonely
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
I wander lonely,
Then I sense you,
There is a rustling in the tree,
Then I hear you.
I close my eyes,
Then in my dreams as well
I hear you whispering
Like leaves upon the tree.
