Wenn du gute Augen hast
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wenn du gute Augen hast,
Und du schaust in meine Lieder,
Siehst du eine junge Schöne
Drinnen wandeln auf und nieder.
Wenn du gute Ohren hast,
Kannst du gar die Stimme hören,
Und ihr Seufzen, Lachen, Singen
Wird dein armes Herz betören.
Denn sie wird, mit Blick und Wort,
Wie mich selber dich verwirren;
Ein verliebter Frühlingsträumer,
Wirst du durch die Wälder irren.

Si tu as de bons yeux
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Si tu as de bons yeux
Et que tu regardes dans mes chansons,
Tu y verras une jeune beauté
Qui se promène ici et là.
Si tu as de bonnes oreilles,
Tu peux entendre sa voix,
Et ses soupirs, rires, chants
Envoûteront ton pauvre cœur.
Car d'un regard ou d'un mot
Elle t'affolera comme elle l'a fait pour moi ;
Et comme un amoureux rêveur, au printemps
Tu erreras dans la forêt.
