Wenn mein Schatz Hochzeit macht,
Fröhliche Hochzeit macht,
Hab' ich meinen traurigen Tag!
Geh' ich in mein Kämmerlein,
Dunkles Kämmerlein,
Weine, wein' um meinen Schatz,
Um meinen lieben Schatz!

Blümlein blau! Verdorre nicht!
Vöglein süß! Du singst auf grüner Heide.
Ach, wie ist die Welt so schön!
Ziküth! Ziküth!
Singet nicht! Blühet nicht!
Lenz ist ja vorbei!
Alles Singen ist nun aus.
Des Abends, wenn ich schlafen geh',
Denk' ich an mein Leide.
An mein Leide!

Quando il mio tesoro va a nozze
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Quando il mio tesoro 
va a nozze,
è il giorno più triste per me!
Vado nella mia cameretta, 
nella buia cameretta!
Piango! Piango sul mio tesoro, 
sul mio caro tesoro!

Fiorellino azzurro! Non appassire!
Dolce uccelletto! Tu canti sul prato!
Ah, come mai è così bello il mondo! 
Cip cip!
Non cantate, non fiorite! 
La primavera è passata!
Ogni canto ora è finito!
La sera, quando vado a letto,
penso al mo dolore, 
al mio dolore!
