Regentropfen aus den Bäumen Fallen in das grüne Gras, Tränen meiner trüben Augen Machen mir die Wange naß. [Wenn die Sonne wieder scheinet,]1 Wird der Rasen doppelt grün: Doppelt wird auf meinen Wangen Mir die heiße Träne glühn.

Regendruppels uit de bomen Vallen in het groene gras, Tranen uit mijn droeve ogen Maken mij de wangen nat. [Als de zon opnieuw gaat schijnen]1, Wordt het grasveld dubbel groen: Dubbel zullen hete tranen Mij de wangen gloeien doen.
