Przez całą noc do świtu [Na morzu wicher]1 grał... Ktoś do mnie zszedł z błękitu, Ktoś długo przy mnie stał. Pod księżycowem złotem Twym głosem szeptał wciąż I ramion twych oplotem Owijał mnie, jak wąż. [W pustelnię moją białą]2 Ktoś z nieba błękit zlal, I długo morze grało, [I]2 księżyc złoto siał. I tak skroś noc do świtu Przez księżycowąjaśń Ktoś z [Szumów]3 i [z]2 błękitu Tkał czarodziejską baśń.

Die Nacht hindurch bis zum Morgenrot Spielte der Wind auf dem Meer... Aus dem Azur stieg jemand herab, Lange stand jemand bei mir. Unterm Mondgold flüstert's Mit deiner Stimme fürderhin, Und deiner Schultern Umarmung Umschlang mich wie eine Natter Jemand das Blau des Himmels abgoß, Und lange spielte das Meer, Der Mond säte das Gold. Durch Mondenschimmer Die Nacht hindurch bis zum Morgenrot, Jemand aus Schimmer und Himmelblau Ein Zaubermärchen flocht.
