Im schönsten Wiesengrunde [English translation]

In the fairest meadow stands my homeland's house*

I trekked many an hour down to the valley

You, my quiet valley, I greet a thousand times

I trekked many an hour down to the valley

Should I leave from the valley, full of pleasure and sound

That would be my harshest suffering, my final walk

You, my quiet valley, I greet a thousand times

That would be my harshest suffering, my final walk

When I die - I want to be buried in valley's soil

Sing to me at the final hour at evening's fading light

You, my quiet valley, I pay the last farewell

Sing to me at the final hour at evening's fading light

(You, my quiet valley, I pay the last farewell)

Sing to me at the final hour at evening's fading light
