Dutch text

Ik zeg adieu, wij twee wij moeten scheiden,

tot op een nieuw zo wil ik troost verbeiden.

Ik laat bij U dat herte mijn, want waar gij zijt, daar wil ik zijn,

't zij vreugd' of pijn, 't zij vreugd' of pijn

altoos wil ik Uw eigen zijn.

English translation by Mick Swithinbank

Farewell, we two must part.

Until we meet again I shall await comfort.

I leave my heart with you,

for where you are, there will I be also:

whether in joy or in sorrow,

I want to be yours for ever.
