It a ly. Kennst du das Land, wo die Zitronen blühn , Im dunklen Laub die Goldorangen glühn , Ein sanfter Wind vom blauen Himmel weht, Die Myrte still und hoch der Lorbeer steht, Kennst du es wohl? Dahin! Dahin Möcht ich mit dir, o mein Geliebter, ziehn !

Knowest thou where the lemon blossom grows, In foliage dark the orange golden glows, A gentle breeze blows from the azure sky, Still stands the myrtle, and the laurel, high? Dost know it well? 'Tis there! 'Tis there Would I with thee, oh my beloved, fare. Johann Wolfgang Goethe
Conosci tu il paese dove fioriscono i limoni?Nel verde fogliame splendono arance d'oroUn vento lieve spira dal cielo azzurroTranquillo è il mirto, sereno l'alloroLo conosci tu bene?Laggiù, laggiùVorrei con te, o mio amato, andare! Johann Wolfgang Goethe
