Da ich verschlafen lag An Waldes grünem Rand, Geschah ein leiser Schrei im Land, Und da ich mir die Augen rieb, War es schon heller Tag. Vergangen ist mein Traum, Mein schwerer Traum! Die Welt Ist ringsum wohlbestellt Und hat für mich und viele Verlaufene Wanderer Raum. O Tag, du junger Tag! Dich darf ich noch durchmessen, In dir die Zeit vergessen Um mich und alles Schwere, Das mir noch kommen mag.

Alors que je dormais allongé À la verte lisière de la forêt, Survint un léger cri dans la campagne, Et tandis que je me frottais les yeux, Il faisait déjà grand jour. Mon rêve est passé, Mon rêve pesant ! Le monde Tout autour est bien fait Et a pour moi de l'espace, Ainsi que pour beaucoup de voyageurs égarés. Ô jour, jeune jour ! Je peux encore t'explorer, Oublier en toi le temps Autour de moi et toute difficulté Qui puisse encore m'advenir.
