Non è ver
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  GER
Quando assiso a te vicin,
Ti parlai ben mio d‘amor,
Ti ricordi angel divin
Palpitaro i nostri cor!

No, non è ver!
Tu dicesti, ti sovvien?
Per la vita io t‘amerò!
Ma mentisti indegna appien
Non fu il cor che tel dettò.

's ist nicht wahr
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Als ich gesessen ganz nah bei dir,
meine Liebe dir gestand,
Weißt noch, Engel, wie dir und mir
pochten die Herzen unverwandt.

Nein, ’s ist nicht wahr!
Du beschworst - ist dir’s gewahr -
dass du liebst mich ein Leben lang.
Doch belogst du mich ganz und gar,
weil es nicht aus dem Herzen kam.
