作曲 : Groth, I, Popp, Qntal

I grieve and dare not show my discontent,

I love and yet am forced to seem to hate,

I do, yet dare not say I ever meant,

I seem stark mute but inwardly do prate.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.

My care is like my shadow in the sun,

Follows me flying, flies when I pursue it.

Stands and lies by me, doth what I have done.

His too familiar care doth make me rue it.

No means I find to rid him from my breast,

Till by the end of things it be suppressed.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.

I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,

Since from myself another self I turned.
