Ihr fernen Heimathöhen, 
Du stilles, kleines Haus,
Du Berg, von dem ich gesehen
Jeden Frühling ins Land hinaus,
Mutter, Freunde und Brüder,
An die ich so oft gedacht,
Es/Ihr grüßt mich Alle(s) wieder
In stiller Mondesnacht.

You distant heights of my homeland
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch) 
You distant heights of my homeland,
You quiet little house,
You mountain, from which I saw
every Spring go out into the land;
mother, friends and brother,
of whom I have so often thought -
you all greet me once again
in the silent moonlit night.
