Knabe, dir gefiel die [duft'ge]1 Rose, Als sie glühend hing am grünen Strauch, Aufgeküßt vom warmen Sonnenstrahle, Rothgeküßt vom warmen Frühlingshauch. Und mit Schmeicheln hast du sie gebrochen, Statt geliebt, verlassen sie darauf, -- -- Ach, wer hebt die [hingeworfne]2 Rose, Die am Boden liegt verwelkend, auf?

Noi, t’ha agradat la rosa olorosa, quan enrogia en el verd arbust, besada pels càlids raigs del sol, besada pels càlids hàlits de la primavera. I afalagador, l’has collit i estimat, te n’has cansat i l’has abandonada. Ai, qui recollirà la rosa desemparada, que jeu a terra, marcint-se!
