Original text and translations

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

English translation 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. Translation by Mick Swithinbank

Italian translation Ahimè, che tormento, dobbiamo davvero lasciarci? Ah, povero me, chi potrebbe non provar pietà? Ahimè che dolore che provo nel mio cuore. Se quindi devo rinunciare a te, è come se mi costasse la vita. Translation by Timo Baucken
