Verlust     lyrics by Karl von Lemcke

Ich hatte eine Nachtigall,
die sang so schön, die sang so schön,
sie ist davon geflogen,
weit über Thal und Höh’n.

Ich hatt’ ein junges Röselein,
so frisch und klar, so frisch und klar,
es ist mir weggestohlen,
derweil ich ferne war.

Ich hatte einen lieben Schatz,
mein Glück, mein Glanz, mein Glück, mein Glanz!
sie ist davon gezogen,
trug einen Myrthenkranz!

Loss   translation by Hélène Lindqvist

I once had a nightingale
she sang so beautifully,
she flew away
far over valleys and hills.

I once had a young little rose
so fresh and pure,
it was stolen from me
as I was away.

I once had a dear sweetheart
my happiness, my radiance!
She went away
wearing a wreath of myrtle
