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.
