In Liebeslust, in Sehnsuchtsqual, O höre mich! Eins sing' ich nur viel tausendmal Und nur für dich! Ich sing' es laut durch Wald und Feld, O höre mich! Ich sing' es durch die ganze Welt: Ich liebe dich! Und träumend noch in stiller Nacht Muß singen ich, Ich singe, wenn mein Aug' erwacht: Ich liebe dich! Und wenn mein [Aug']1 im Tode bricht, O sähst du mich! Du sähst, daß noch [dies]2 Auge spricht: Ich liebe dich!

Dans le transport de l'amour, dans un désir Oh, écoute-moi ! Je chante seulement un unique chant des milliers de fois Et seulement pour toi ! Je le chante fort dans la forêt et les champs, Oh, écoute-moi ! Je le chante à travers le monde entier : Je t'aime ! Et en rêvant dans la nuit silencieuse Je dois le chanter, Je chante quand mes yeux s'éveillent : Je t'aime ! Et quand mon cœur se brise dans la mort, Oh si tu me voyais ! Tu verrais mes yeux dire encore : Je t'aime !
