from Volkslieder (Folksongs)
Translation by (Carl Friedrich) Julius Altmann (1814 - 1873)

Lied des Anglers
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Russian (Русский) 
Hier sitz' ich mit der Angel, ach! 
Kein Fischlein beißt hinein;
Kein Bärblein, keine Zärthe will 
Von mir gefangen sein.

Hier sitz' ich und gedenke trüb 
Ach dein, Anjuta, dein, 
Mit dir verkehr ich immerdar,
Bin ich auch ganz allein.

Du warfst der Schönheit Angel aus
Und locktest mich hinein,
Nun muß mein Herz verbluten, Kind,
Muß stets gefangen sein.
