German text
Die Nachtigall
Die Nachtigall, sie war entfernt
der Frühling lockt sie wieder;
was neues hat sie nicht gelernt,
singt alte liebe Lieder.
transcribed by Goethe
English text
The Nightingale
The nightingale had gone afar;
Spring summons her back.
She has learned nothing new;
She sings the old beloved songs.
