Original text and translations

German text Wohl schön bewandt War es vorehe Mit meinem Leben, Mit meiner Liebe; Durch eine Wand, Ja, durch zehn Wände, Erkannte mich Des Freundes Sehe; Doch jetzo, wehe, Wenn ich dem Kalten Auch noch so dicht Vor’m Auge stehe, Es merkt’s sein Auge, Sein Herze nicht.

English translation How very pleasant it used to be, both with my life and with my love; through a wall, even through ten walls, my friend’s eye noticed me. Yet now, alas, even if I stand right in front of the cold one’s eye, his eye, his heart notice me not. Translation by Cayuga Vocal Ensemble
