Wie deutlich des Mondes Licht Zu mir spricht, Mich beseelend zu der Reise: "Folge treu dem alten Gleise, Wähle keine Heimath nicht. Ew'ge Plage Bringen sonst die schweren Tage. Fort zu andern Sollst du wechseln, sollst du wandern, Leicht entfliehend jeder Klage." Sanfte Ebb' und hohe Fluth, Tief im Muth, Wandr' ich so im [Dunkel]1 weiter, Steige muthig, singe heiter, Und die Welt erscheint mir gut. Alles reine Seh' ich mild im Wiederscheine, Nichts verworren In des Tages Gluth verdorren: Froh umgeben, doch alleine.
E. Vietor sets stanza 2

La llum de la lluna em parla clarament incitant-me al viatge: “Segueix fidelment el vell sender, no escullis cap pàtria. altrament, turments sense fi portaran els dies difícils. Lluny, cap un altre lloc, t’has de canviar, has de caminar lleuger, fugint de tots els laments.” Amb gentil reflux i marea alta al fons de l’ànima, segueixo caminant en la foscúria, grimpo amb coratge, canto alegre, i el món em sembla un bon lloc. Veig tota la puresa en el suau reflex, res és confús en la resseca xardor del dia: estic envoltat de joia, però tot sol.
