Glaube mir nicht, wenn du aus meinem Munde Das Wort vernimmst: "ich liebe dich nicht mehr;" Dem Flieh'n der See in ihrer Ebbestunde Glaub' nimmer du, harr' ihrer Wiederkehr. Es schwillt das Herz in Lieb'- und Schmerzensgluthen, Ich fühle mich [auf's]1 neu an Dich gebannt, Und brausend rollen die entwichnen Fluthen Zurücke schon zu dem geliebten Strand.

Do not believe me when from my mouth you hear the words "I no longer love you"; at the hour of low tide, never believe the sea has fled -- await its return. My heart begins to swell again with love and pained fervor; As if for the first time, I feel myself spellbound by you, and the escaping waves roll thunderously back again to the beloved shore.
