Mañanica era, mañana de San Juan se decía al fin, cuando aquella diosa Venus dentro de un fresco jardín tomando estaba la fresca a la sombra de un jazmín, cabellos en su cabeza, parecía un serafín. Sus mejillas y sus labios como color de rubí y el objeto de su cara figuraba un querubín; allí de flores floridas hacía un rico cojín, de rosas una guirnalda para el que venía a morir, ¡ah!, lealmente por amores sin a nadie descubrir.

Es dämmerte der Morgen - Johanni1 sagt sich endlich an, als die Liebesgöttin Venus in einem kühlen Garten genoss die morgendliche Frische im Schatten des Jasmins; mit ihrem Haar glich einem Seraph sie. Die Wangen und die Lippen von der Farbe des Rubin, und ihre Miene gab einen Cherub vor. Aus Blüten machte sie ein prächtiges Kissen, eine Rosengirlande für einen, der zum sterben kam, ach, in treuer Liebe, ohne dies je zu offenbaren.
