Schon wieder bin ich [fortgerissen]1 Vom Herzen, das ich innig liebe, Schon wieder bin ich fortgerissen -- O wüßtest du, wie gern ich bliebe! Der Wagen rollt, es dröhnt die Brücke, Der Fluß darunter fließt so trübe; Ich scheide wieder von dem Glücke. Vom Herzen, das ich innig liebe. Am Himmel jagen hin die Sterne, Als flöhen sie vor meinem [Schmerze]2 -- Leb wohl, Geliebte! In der Ferne. Wo ich auch bin, blüht dir mein Herze.

Again I am [torn away]1 From the heart that I love profoundly; Again I am torn away -- Oh, if you only knew how gladly I would stay! The carriage rolls [forward], the bridge groans [under its weight], The river underneath flows so turbidly; I am again departing from happiness, From the heart that I love profoundly! The stars race across the heavens As if they were fleeing from my sorrow -- Farewell, beloved! In the far distance. Wherever I am, my heart blooms for you.
