Hun er saa hvid, min Hjertenskjær
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Available translation(s): FRE GRE
Hun er saa hvid, min Hjertenskjær,
Et mere hvidt ej findes der;
Jeg elsker hende, ej det sker,
At jeg kan elske hende mer!
Nu er hun død, min Hjertenskjær,
langt mere hvid hun smilerder!
Nu er hun død, o Hjertegru!
Og mer jeg elsker hende nu!

Leykī́ ki agnī́
Language: Greek (Ελληνικά)  after the Danish (Dansk)
Leykī́ ki agnī́ kai latreytī́,
Aneýretī ī leykáda aytī́.
Tīn agapṓ, ki aytó polý,
M’ agápī ateleíōtī!
Nekrī́ eínai pia, leykī́ ki agnī́,
Ki ī ópsī chaírei pálleykī.
Nekrī́ eínai pia, ō pṓs ponṓ,
Kai pio polý tīn agapṓ.
