He, Zigeuner, greife in die Saiten ein! Spiel das Lied vom ungetreuen Mägdelein! Laß die Saiten weinen, klagen, traurig bange, Bis die heiße Träne netzet diese Wange!

Ei! Gitano, fes sonar les cordes! Toca la cançó de la noia infidel! Fes que les cordes plorin, es planyin, tristes, angoixades, fins que ardents llàgrimes humitegin aquestes galtes.

Hochgetürmte Rimaflut, Wie bist du so trüb; An dem Ufer klag ich Laut nach dir, mein Lieb! Wellen fliehen, Wellen strömen, Rauschen an dem Strand heran zu mir. An dem Rimaufer laß mich Ewig weinen nach ihr!

Crescudes aigües del Rima que tèrboles sou; a la riba, cridant fort, em planyo de tu, amor meu! Les ones passen amb corrent impetuós a la platjola, bramulant envers meu. A la riba del Rima, deixeu-me plorar eternament per ella!

Wißt ihr, wenn mein Kindchen am allerschönsten ist? Wenn ihr süßes Mündchen scherzt und lacht und küßt. Mägdelein, du bist mein, inniglich küß ich dich, Dich erschuf der liebe Himmel einzig nur für mich! Wißt ihr, wenn mein Liebster am besten mir gefällt? Wenn in seinen Armen er mich umschlungen hält. Schätzelein, du bist mein, inniglich küß ich dich, Dich erschuf der liebe Himmel einzig nur für mich!

Sabeu quan la meva nena és més bonica? Quan la seva dolça boqueta bromeja i riu i besa. Noia, tu ets meva, jo et beso amb delit, el cel gloriós et va crear només per a mi! Sabeu quan la meva estimada més m’agrada? Quan em té abraçat en els seus braços. Petit tresor, tu ets meva, jo et beso amb delit, el cel gloriós et va crear només per a mi!

Lieber Gott, du weißt, wie oft bereut ich hab, Daß ich meinem Liebsten einst ein Küßchen gab. Herz gebot, daß ich ihn küssen muß, Denk, solang ich leb, an diesen ersten Kuß. Lieber Gott, du weißt, wie oft in stiller Nacht Ich in Lust und Leid an meinen Schatz gedacht. Lieb ist süß, wenn bitter auch die Reu, Armes Herze bleibt ihm ewig, ewig treu.

Bon Déu, tu saps quan sovint em penedeixo d’haver, una vegada, besat el meu estimat. El cor em dictà que jo l’havia de besar, i, tant temps com visqui, només pensaré en aquest primer bes. Bon Déu, tu saps quant sovint, en la nit silenciosa, penso en el meu tresor, amb delit i pena. L’amor és dolç, com amarg és el penediment, aquest pobre cor li restarà per sempre, sempre, fidel.

Brauner Bursche führt zum Tanze Sein blauäugig schönes Kind; Schlägt die Sporen keck zusammen, Csardasmelodie beginnt. Küßt und herzt sein süßes Täubchen, Dreht sie, führt sie, jauchzt und springt; Wirft drei blanke Silbergulden Auf das Zimbal, daß es klingt.

El xicot morè portar a ballar la seva bonica noia d’ulls blaus; fa batre els esperons amb força, comença la melodia de les czardes. Besa i acarona la seva dolça colometa, la fa girar, la guia, crida i salta; llança tres brillants florins d’argent als címbals, per què ressonin.

Röslein dreie in der Reihe blühn so rot, Daß der Bursch zum Mädel gehe, ist kein Verbot! Lieber Gott, wenn das verboten wär, Ständ die schöne weite Welt schon längst nicht mehr; Ledig bleiben Sünde wär! Schönstes Städtchen in Alföld ist Ketschkemet, Dort gibt es gar viele Mädchen schmuck und nett! Freunde, sucht euch dort ein Bräutchen aus, Freit um ihre Hand und gründet euer Haus, Freudenbecher leeret aus.

Tres petites roses en renglera floreixen tan vermelles que el xicot va vers la noia, no és pas interdit! Bon Déu, si això fos prohibit, el bonic i ample món s’hauria acabat; restar solter seria pecat! La ciutat més bonica de l’Alföld és Ketschkemet, allà hi ha moltes noies ben plantades i bufones! Amics, busqueu-vos allà una xicota, demaneu la seva mà i poseu casa. Buideu la copa de la joia.

Horch, der Wind klagt in den Zweigen traurig sacht; süßes Lieb, wir müssen Scheiden: gute Nacht. Ach wie gern in deinen Armen ruhte ich, doch die Trennungsstunde naht, Gott schütze dich. Dunkel ist die Nacht, kein Sternlein spendet Licht; süßes Lieb vertrau auf Gott und weine nicht; führt der liebe Gott mich einst zu dir zurück, bleiben ewig wir vereint in Liebesglück.

Escolta el vent que es plany entre les branques; dolça estimada, ens hem de separar: bona nit. Ai, de bon grat restaria en els teus braços, però l’hora de la partença s’acosta, Déu tingui cura de tu. Fosca és la nit, cap estrella dóna claror; dolça estimada, confia en Déu i no ploris; si mai el bon Déu em fa retronar al teu costat, restarem per sempre units en la joia de l’amor.

Weit und breit schaut niemand mich an, und wenn sie mich hassen, was liegt mir dran? Nur mein Schatz der soll mich lieben allezeit, soll mich küssen, umarmen und herzen in Ewigkeit. Kein Stern blickt in finsterer Nacht; keine Blum mir strahlt in duftiger Pracht. Deine Augen sind mir Blumen Sternenschein, die mir leuchten so freundlich, die blühen nur mir allein.

Arreu, ningú em mira a la cara i, si m’odien, què m’importa? Només el meu tresor m’ha d’estimar per sempre, m’ha de besar, abraçar i acaronar eternament. Cap estrella brilla en la fosca nit; cap flor llueix en flairosa esplendor. Els teus ulls, per a mi, són flors i centelleig d’estrelles que brillen amables, que floreixen només per a mi.

Mond verhüllt sein Angesicht, süßes Lieb, ich zürne dir nicht. Wollt ich zürnend dich betrüben, sprich wie könnt ich dich dann lieben? Heiß für dich mein Herz entbrennt, keine Zunge dir's bekennt. Bald in Liebesrausch unsinnig, bald wie Täubchen sanft und innig.
