Die Luft ist kühl und trübe, Der Frühling rief Ade! So scheidet auch die Liebe Nach kurzem Wonneweh. Es ist ein altes Leiden, Was Lenz und Liebe raubt: O hätten wir den beiden, Mein Herz, doch nie geglaubt!

L'air est frais et trouble, le printemps crie Adieu ! Ainsi l'amour aussi s'en va Après une brève joie douloureuse. C'est une vieille souffrance Qui vole le printemps et l'amour, Oh, nous n'y avions tous les deux, Mon cœur, jamais cru.
