Romanze „Der Vollmond Strahlt“
Text - Wilhelmina von Chézy

Der Vollmond strahlt auf Bergeshöhn –
Wie hab ich dich vermisst!
Du süsses Herz! es ist so schön,
Wenn treu die Treue küsst.
Was frommt des Maien holde Zier?
Du warst mein Frühlingsstrahl!
Licht meiner Nacht, o lächle mir
Im Tode noch einmal!
Sie trat hinein beim Vollmondschein,
Sie blickte himmelwärts:
„Im Leben fern, im Tode dein!“
Und sanft brach Herz an Herz.

Romance ‘The full moon beams’
English Translation - Richard Wigmore

The full moon beams on the mountain tops;
how I have missed you!
Sweetheart, it is so beautiful
when true love truly kisses.
What are May’s fair adorments to me?
You were my ray of spring.
Light of my night, O smile upon me
once more in death.
She entered in the light of the full moon,
and gazed heavenwards.
‘In life far away, yet in death yours!’
And gently heart broke upon heart.
