Lyrics
Lass, o Welt, o lass mich sein!
Locket nicht mit Liebesgaben,
lass dies Herz alleine haben
seine Wonne, seine Pein!
Let me rest, o world, let me alone!
Don't seduce me with gifts of love,
Let this heart alone have
its blissfulness and its pain!
Locket nicht mit Liebesgaben,
lass dies Herz alleine haben
seine Wonne, seine Pein!
Let me rest, o world, let me alone!
Don't seduce me with gifts of love,
Let this heart alone have
its blissfulness and its pain!
