O daß ich dir vom stillen Auge In seinem liebevollen Schein, Die Thräne von der Wange sauge, Eh' sie die Erde trinket ein. Wohl hält sie zögernd auf der Wange, Und will sich heiß der Treue weihn; Nun ich sie so im Kuß empfange, Nun sind auch deine Schmerzen mein.

Oh, potessi dai tuoi occhi muti, che splendono d'amore ricolmi, bere le lacrime sulla tua guancia, prima che la terra le accolga! Si trattengono esitanti sul viso per consacrarsi, ardenti, all'amore e quando con un bacio le catturo diventa mio, tutto mio, ogni tuo dolore.
