Listen to my heart
Sorrowful, alas
I am lost without you
And your wife
The great love in your life
She guided me
Be with me always
Day and night

Chorus:
Lamenting the great loneliness
The sorrowful tears
Asleep [1] in the quiet green grave
In a deep peace
There was happiness
But that departed
It was he who followed you
Your husband
The great love in your life
He guided me
Be with me always
Day and night

Chorus

I think of the day
That you were beside ne
Telling a story [2]
Of the old life [3]
I remember the day
Without want and without gloom
Be with me always
Day and night
