Du bist ein Kind wie all die vielen, die auf der ganzen Erde sind, wie all die anderen Gespielen und doch bist du so anders, Kind. Du bist ein Kind, dem Heimat fehlt, in allen Städten bist du fremd. So lang dich nicht das Wort beseelt: Heimat, dein Herz ist ungehemmt.

Tu es un enfant comme tous les autres, Tous ceux qui sont sur la terre, Comme tous les autres camarades de jeux Et pourtant tu es si différent, mon enfant. Tu es un enfant sans patrie, Dans toutes les villes tu es un étranger. Tant que ce mot ne t'anime pas : Patrie, ton cœur est sans attaches.
