Original text and translations

German text

Die helle Sonne leuchtet
Auf’s weite Meer hernieder,
Und alle Wellen zittern
Von ihrem Glanze wieder.

Du spiegelst Dich, wie die Sonne,
Im Meere meiner Lieder!
Sie alle glühn und zittern
Von Deinem Glanze wieder!

English text

The glowing sunshine’s beaming,
Far o’er the ocean streaming,
And all the waves are gleaming,
In sunlight glory dreaming.

Thy love is the sunshine’s beaming
Which through my song is streaming,
Ah, loved one read its meaning
Or let me stay on dreaming.
