Das Wandern ist des Müllers Lust, Das Wandern! Das muß ein [schlechter]1 Müller sein, Dem niemals fiel das Wandern ein, Das Wandern. Vom Wasser haben wir's gelernt, Vom Wasser! Das hat nicht Rast bei Tag und Nacht, Ist stets auf Wanderschaft bedacht, Das Wasser. Das sehn wir auch den Rädern ab, Den Rädern! Die gar nicht gerne stille stehn, Die sich mein Tag nicht müde [drehn]2, Die Räder. Die Steine selbst, so schwer sie sind, Die Steine! Sie tanzen mit den muntern Reihn Und wollen gar noch schneller sein, Die Steine. O Wandern, Wandern, meine Lust, O Wandern! Herr Meister und Frau Meisterin, Laßt mich in Frieden weiter ziehn Und wandern.
J. Lang sets stanza 1

Caminhar é a alegria do moleiro, Caminhar! Só pode ser um mau moleiro, Aquele que não simpatiza com o caminhar, Caminhar! Nós aprendemos isso com a água, Com a água! Ela não descansa de dia ou de noite, E só se foca em manter a marcha, A água! Nós também notamos as rodas do moinho, As rodas! Elas não gostam de ficar paradas, E não se cansam durante todo o meu dia de serviço, As rodas. As próprias pedras, que são tão pesadas, As pedras! Elas dançam em uma roda alegre E gostariam de poder ser mais rápidas, As pedras! Oh, caminhar, caminhar, minha paixão, Oh, caminhar! Senhor mestre moleiro e senhora mestra, Deixem-me seguir em frente em paz, E caminhar!
