Komm, komm, und fort auf die Bergeshöh'
Language: German (Deutsch) after the English
Komm, komm, und fort auf die Bergeshöh',
Wo die Bäume freundlich grüßen,
Komm, komm, und fort auf die Bergeshöh',
Wo die Wasser lieblich fließen;
Und die Schönheit, mein Lieb, auf der Wange dir blüht,
Gleich der Rose, die morgens erwacht,
Und der Zephyr durch blumige Thäler zieht,
Und trinkt die Perlen der Nacht.
Komm, komm, und fort auf die Bergeshöh', usw.
Komm, komm, und fort zum Felsenspalt,
Wo das Rothwild lustig springt,
Und lustig das Echo widerhallt,
Wenn des Jägers Horn erklinget
Und die Schönheit, mein Lieb, auf der Wange dir blüht,
Gleich der Rose, die morgens erwacht;
Und der Zephyr durch blumige Thäler zieht
Und trinkt die Perlen der Nacht.
Komm, komm, und fort auf die Bergeshöh', usw.

Come, come, and away on the mountain heights
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
up among the friendly trees,
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
where the waters flow delightfully;
and such beauty, my love,
blooms on your cheek,
like the rose, that opens in the morning,
and the zephyr that wafts through flowered vales,
and drinks the pearls of the night.
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
up among the friendly trees,
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
where the waters flow delightfully;
Come, come, and away to the rocky crags,
where the red deer leaps merrily,
and merrily the echo resounds,
with sounds of the hunter's horn
and such beauty, my love,
blooms on your cheek,
like the rose, that opens in the morning,
and the zephyr that wafts through flowered vales,
and drinks the pearls of the night.
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
up among the friendly trees,
Come, come, and away on the mountain heights,
where the waters flow delightfully;
