Hat sie sich denn nie geäußert
Language:
German
«Hat sie sich denn nie geäußert
Über dein verliebtes Wesen?
Konntest du in ihren Augen
Niemals Gegenliebe lesen?
Konntest du in ihren Augen
Niemals bis zur Seele dringen?
Und du bist ja sonst kein Esel,
Teurer Freund, in solchen Dingen.»

Did she ne'er express compassion
Language:
English
"Did she ne'er express compassion
For thy tender situation?
Could'st thou never in her glances
Read thy love's reciprocation?
"Could'st thou ne'er surprise the spirit
In her bright eyes unawares?
Yet thou surely art no donkey,
Dearest friend, in these affairs!"
