Original text and translations

German.png German text Ach weh des Leiden,
muss es dann sein gescheiden?
Ach weh mir Armen,
wenn sollt's doch nicht erbarmen?
Ach weh des schmerzen,
so ich empfind im Herzen.
Herzen. muss ich dich dann aufgeben,
so kost's mein Leben.


English translation by Mick Swithinbank:

Alas, what sorrow I feel:
must we part?
Alas, poor me,
who would not sympathise with my plight?
Alas, what pain
I feel in my heart.
If I must give you up
it will cost me my life.
