In dem weiten, breiten, luft'gen Leinenkleide
freier der Zigeuner als in Gold un Seide!
Jaj! der gold'ne Dolman schnürt die Brust zu enge,
hemmt des freien Liedes wanderfrohe Klänge.
Wer beim Schwung der Lieder wahre Lust empfindet,
wünscht, daß alles Gold jetzt aus der Welt verschwindet!

Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
En l'ample, folgada, lleugera vestimenta de lli
el gitano és més lliure que abillat d'or i seda!
Ai! El dòlman daurat estreny massa el pit,
inhibeix el so alegre, nòmada, del lliure cant.
El qui, de veritat, en el frèndol de les cançons es delecta,
desitja que tot l'or desapareixi d'aquest món.
