Ich wandre heim durchs hohe Feld, Die Wolken ziehn. In tiefer Ruhe liegt die Welt -- -- Du bist dahin! Das Abendläuten ist verhallt Im Lindengrün, Der letzte Vogel singt im Wald -- -- Du bist dahin! Da fühl' ich's leise, wie ich krank Vor Sehnen bin, Der Vogel schwieg, die Sonne sank -- -- Du bist dahin!

Dans les hautes terres, je marche vers la maison Les nuages filent Le monde est en profond repos. Tu es partie ! Les bruits du soir se perdent Dans la ramure des tilleuls, Le dernier oiseau chante dans la forêt. Tu es partie ! Alors je me sens faible, comme malade de langueur ; L'oiseau se tait, le soleil a plongé. Tu es partie !
