Original text and translations
German text
- Schwarzer Wald, dein Schatten ist so düster!
- Armes Herz, dein Leiden ist so drückend!
- Was dir einzig wert, es steht vor Augen;
- ewig untersagt ist Huldvereinung.
- German text by Georg Friedrich Daumer (1800-1875)
- Based on a text in Serbian by Anonymous/Unidentified Artist, [text unavailable]
English translation
- Dark forest, your shade is so gloomy!
- Poor heart, your sorrow presses so heavily!
- The only thing valuable to you is standing before your eyes;
- eternally forbidden is that union with love.
