Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Die verehrlichen Jungen, welche heuer
Meine Äpfel und Birnen zu stehlen gedenken,
Ersuche ich höflichst, bei diesem Vergnügen
Wo möglich insoweit sich zu beschränken,
Daß sie daneben auf den Beeten
Mir die Wurzeln und Erbsen nicht zertreten.

Août ‑ Avis
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Les honorables jeunes gens qui cette année
Ont pensé voler mes pommes et mes poires
Sont courtoisement invités, à l'occasion de ce plaisir,
Et dans la mesure du possible, de se tenir à l'écart
Des parterres adjacents afin
De ne pas me piétiner les carottes et les pois.
