I had actually found this site prior to posting here, but these unfortunately are simply translations, not English lyrics. (As I am fluent in German, I had little use for translations.) I am sincerely grateful to you for your help, though! It is very kind of you to spare the time to find these. Thank you. :o)

: : I am looking for English lyrics (NOT just translations!) to Mahler's Kindertotenlieder (based on poems by Friedrich Rückert). Specifically, I am interested in the fourth of these songs, "Oft denk' ich, sie sind nur ausgegangen". I have heard this sung in English; the text included "...on Beulah Height!" in lieu of "...auf jenen Höh'n!". I would dearly love to have these lyrics. Can anyone help?
