Am Ufer des Flusses
Bevor die Sonne erlischt
Nur leichtes Gurgeln
--------------------------------
At the river banks
Before the sun finally sets
Only a slight gurgle
-------------------------------
A orillas del río
Antes que el sol desaparece
Sólo ligero gorgoteo
__________________________
Nur eine alte Eiche
Da hinter der Wegbiegung
Trotzte dem letzen Sturm
------------------------------------
Only an old oak tree
There behind the road bend
Defied the last storm
-------------------------------------
Sólo un viejo roble
Detrás de la revuelta del camino
Desafió la última tormenta
