»Hast du Lianen nicht [geseh'n]1?« »Ich sah sie zu dem Teiche geh'n.« Durch Busch und [Hecken]2 rennt er fort, Und kommt [zu ihrem]3 Lieblingsort. Die Linde spannt ihr grünes Netz, Aus Rosen tönt des Bachs Geschwätz; Die Blätter röthet Sonnengold, Und Alles ist der Freude hold. Liane fährt auf einem Kahn, Vertraute Schwäne nebenan. Sie spielt die Laute, singt ein Lied, Wie Liebe in ihr selig blüht. Das Schifflein schwanket, wie es will. Sie senkt das Haupt, und denket still [Nur]4 ihn - der im Gebüsche ist, Sie bald in seine Arme schließt.

« As-tu vu Liane ? » « Je l'ai vue près de l'étang. » À travers les buissons et les broussailles il court Et arrive à son endroit favori. Le tilleul étend son filet vert, Le babillage du ruisseau sonne parmi les roses ; L'or du soleil rougit les feuilles, Et tout est touché par la joie. Liane glisse sur un bateau, Ses cygnes bien-aimés l'accompagnent. Elle joue de son luth, chante un chant Tandis que un amour bienheureux brûle en elle. Le petit bateau oscille, comme il veut, Elle laisse sa tête penchée et pense silencieusement À celui qui est dans les buissons, Et qui bientôt la prendra dans ses bras.
