Our translations: ENG
Immer trüber, immer trüber Zieht's am Himmelsbogen her: Graue Wolken dumpf und schwer! Doch die Wolken zieh'n vorüber. In's beglückte Thal hernieder Fließt das goldne Sonnenlicht . . . Armes Herz, o hoffe nicht! Deine Sonne kehrt nicht wieder.
Confirmed with Ernst Eckstein, In Moll und Dur, Leipzig: Verlag von Johann Friedrich Hartknoch, 1877, page 22.
