Wir saßen so traulich [beisammen]1 Im kühlen Erlendach, [Wir]2 schauten so traulich zusammen Hinab in den rieselnden Bach. Der Mond war auch gekommen, Die Sternlein hinterdrein, Und schauten so traulich zusammen In den silbernen Spiegel hinein. Ich sah nach keinem Monde, Nach keinem Sternenschein, Ich schaute nach ihrem Bilde, Nach [ihren Augen]3 allein. Und sahe sie nicken und blicken Herauf aus dem seligen Bach, Die Blümlein am Ufer, die blauen, Sie nickten und blickten ihr nach. Und in den Bach versunken Der ganze Himmel schien, Und wollte mich mit hinunter In seine Tiefe ziehn. Und über den Wolken und Sternen Da rieselte munter der Bach, Und rief mit Singen und Klingen: Geselle, Geselle, mir nach! Da gingen die Augen mir über, Da ward es im Spiegel so kraus; Sie sprach: Es kommt ein Regen, Ade, ich geh' nach Haus.
J. Lang sets stanza 1

둘이 함께 정답게 앉았네 나무 밑 그늘에. 둘이 함께 정답게 담겼네 반짝이는 냇물 속에. 달도 떠올라 있고 별도- 떠 있었네. 모두 서로 정답게 보였네 은빛 거울에 비친 모습. 내 눈엔 달도 별도 모두 안 보였네. 그녀만을 바라봤네 오직 그녀 눈만을. 그녀의 귀여운 눈길이 꽃들에게 향했을 땐 냇가에 핀 푸른 꽃들도 그녀에게 응답했네. 냇물에 잠겨 있던 하늘이 빛나며 나를 부르는 듯 했네. 깊은 물속에서. 구름과 별 그 너머에선 냇물의 노래 들렸네. 흥겹게 내게 말했네. 친구야, 이리로 오라! 내 눈에서 눈물 떨어져 거울 속이 흔들렸네. "비가 오네요, 안녕!" 그녀는 일어섰네.
