Konstanze, to see you once more!

O how eagerly, o how ardently

My lovesick heart is beating!
But the glad tears of our reunion
Will erase the anxious pain of separation.


I already tremble and waver,
Quake and falter;

My breast swells to bursting!

Is that her whisper?

I'm all on fire.
Was that her sigh?
My cheeks are aglow.

Does love deceive me?
Was it a dream?
