[Ich bin der Mönch Waltramus]1, Dem seliges Leid geschah, Ich läute die Abendglocken: Vale carissima! Es steht eine Burg am Berge, Wo ich die Traute sah, Mein Herz klingt in die Glocken: Vale carissima! Fern soll mir stehen Minne, Und stand mir doch so nah! [Es steht ein Kloster im Tale]2, Vale carissima!

Sóc el monjo Waltramus, a qui s’esdevingué una feliç sofrença, faig sonar les campanes al capvespre: Adéu caríssima! A la muntanya hi ha un castell, on vaig veure l’estimada, el meu cor ressona en les campanes: Adéu caríssima! L’amor ha de restar lluny de mi i tanmateix era tant a prop! No hi ha cap convent a la vall: Adéu caríssima!
