English text
Have I found her? O rich finding,
Goddess-like for to behold,
Her fair tresses seemly binding,
In a chain of pearl and gold.
Chain me, chain me, O most fair,
Chain me to thee with that hair.
German translation
Habe ich sie gefunden? Welch unbezahlbarer Fund!
Wie eine Göttin anzusehen,
Ihre hellen Zöpfe sittsam gebunden
in einer Kette aus Perlen und Gold,
Kette mich, o du Wunderschöne,
Kette mich an dich mit diesem Haar.
