Vom Dünnkuchen zum Morgenbrot

[Vom]1 Dünnkuchen zum Morgenbrot 
Erst ein [Stückchen]2 mir brach ich; 
Trank auch [Wein einen Krug]3 dazu; 
Und zur zärtlichen Laute 
[Greif ich jetzo, dem zartesten 
Kind ein Ständchen zu bringen]4.

À l'aube

D'une mince galette pour mon repas du matin
J'ai d'abord rompu un petit morceau ;
J'ai bu aussi une cruche pleine de vin ;
Et mon doux luth
Je l'attrape maintenant.
Mon pauvre pays natal,
Quand te reverrai-je à nouveau ?
