Im Wald, gelehnt am Stamme

Alto-solo:
Im Wald, gelehnt am Stamme,
Am alten Eichenbaum,
Da weilt der Sohn des Försters,
Versunken wie im Traum.
Er hat des Müllers Töchterlein
So lieb, wie Keiner mehr,
Und wandelt nun im süssen Traum
Von Liebesglück einher,
Fragt wohl die Sternenblumen,
Fragt sie wohl Tag für Tag,
Und will dem "Ja" nicht glauben,
Das das Orakel sprach.

Nel bosco, appoggiato al tronco
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the German (Deutsch)
Contralto:
Nel bosco, appoggiato al tronco,
presso una vecchia quercia,
sta il figlio del guardaboschi,
come sperduto in un sogno.
Ama la figlia del mugnaio
come mai gli era accaduto con altre,
e vaga qua e là dolcemente sognando
delle delizie d'amore.
Sfoglia le margherite
E le interroga ogni giorno,
e non osa credere alla parola "sì"
che l'oracolo gli sussurra.
