中英文歌词附在下面：
The Linden Tree (Der Lindenbaum)
Before the doorway is a well
A Linden-tree stands there
Many times I’ve sought its shade
A place of rest and pleasant dreams
When dreaming there I carved
Some words of love upon the bark
Both joy and sorrow
Drew me to that shady spot
But today I must wander
Through this blackest night
In darkness I passed this tree
But couldn’t bear to look
I heard the branches rustle
As if they spoke to me
Come to me my old friend
Find peace with me
Cruel winds were blowing
Coldly cutting my face
My hat was blown behind me
I quickly sped on my way
I’m now many miles distant
From that dear old Linden-tree
But I still hear it whisper
“Come – find peace with me.”
在门前的水井旁有一颗菩提树，
在它的树荫下我做过许多美梦。
我在树身上刻了许多可爱的话语，
在欢乐和忧伤时，它不断召唤我到它那里。
今天深夜里。我还得流浪着路过它，
在黑暗中，闭上眼睛我仍能看见它。
树枝沙沙作响，好像在召唤我：
到我这里来，小伙子，在这里你能得到安宁！
冷风直吹我的脸，
帽子从头上吹走，但我一动不动。
现在我离开这里已经很久，
我还时常听见它沙沙作响：你将在那里得到安宁！
