Er, der Herrlichste von Allen
(He, the noblest of the noble)He, the noblest of the noble
O, how gentle, O how kind!
His the sweetest lips, the
brightest eyes, the bravest
heart and clearest mind!
As the brightest star above,
So shines he from out my heaven.
Far below I stand humbly gazing
on his radiance, thrilling my heart with
joy and pain.
A thousand times I'll bless the woman
loved by him.
Shedding tears, and yet rejoicing,
Happy will be my lot,
Tho' my heart be broken,
it matters not.
Morgen
(Tomorrow)
Tomorrow's sun will rise in glory
beaming;
and in the pathway that my foot
shall wander, we'll meet, forget
the earth, and lost in dreaming
let heaven unite a love that
earth shall not sunder.
And towards that shore, its billows
softly flowing, hands entwined,
our footsteps slowly wending,
then shall we gaze into each other's
eyes,
mute with tears of joy and bliss
unending.Vergebliches Standchen
(The Vain Suit)(He) "Good evening, my dear.
I come for love of you,
so open the door for me!"
(She) "My door is locked,
I'll not let you in.
Mother spoke the truth.
If you came in, all
would be over for me!"
(He) "The night is so cold and
the wind so icy,
soon they will freeze
my heart and kill my love,
so let me in, dear child!"
(She) "If your love must die,
then let it.
Go home to bed, to sleep.
Goodnight, my lad!"
