Weiter, rastlos, atemlos
Vorüber festlich helles Schloß.
Geissle Sturm die müde Nacht,
Daß sie waldeinwärts mit mir jagt.
Und ist es wahr, du liebtest mich,
Maria, und verrietest mich,
Und ist es wahr, ist es wahr?

Onward, without rest
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch) 
Onward, without rest, breathlessly
The festive bright palace [flashes] by.
Whip, oh storm, the tired night,
That it may tear along with me into the wood.
And is it true, you loved me,
Maria, and betrayed me,
And is it true, is it true?
