Original text and translations
German text
Schwarzer Wald, dein Schatten ist so düster!
Armes Herz, dein Leiden ist so drückend!
Was dir einzig wert, es steht vor Augen;
ewig untersagt ist Huldvereinung.
German text by Georg Friedrich Daumer (1800-1875)
Based on a text in Serbian by Anonymous/Unidentified Artist, [text unavailable]
English translation
Dark forest, your shade is so gloomy!
Poor heart, your sorrow presses so heavily!
The only thing valuable to you is standing before your eyes;
eternally forbidden is that union with love.
