Ihr Mädchen, flieht Damöten ja! Als ich zum erstenmal ihn sah, Da fühlt' ich, so was fühlt' ich nie, Mir ward, mir ward, ich weiß nicht wie, Ich seufze, zitterte, und schien mich doch zu freu'n; Glaubt mir, er muß ein Zaub'rer sein. Sah ich ihn an, so ward mir heiß, Bald ward ich rot, bald ward ich weiß, Zuletzt nahm er mich bei der Hand; Wer sagt mir, was ich da empfand? Ich sah, ich hörte nichts, Sprach nichts als ja und nein; Glaubt mir, er muß ein Zaub'rer sein. Er führte mich in dies Gesträuch, Ich wollt' ihm flieh'n und folgt' ihm gleich; Er setzte sich, ich setzte mich; Er sprach, nur Sylben stammelt' ich; Die Augen starrten ihm, die meinen wurden klein; Glaubt mir, er muß ein Zaub'rer sein. Entbrannt drückt' er mich an sein Herz, Was fühlt' ich Welch ein süßer Schmerz! Ich schluchzt', ich atmete sehr schwer, Da kam zum Glück die Mutter her; Was würd', o Götter, sonst nach so viel Zauberei'n, Aus mir zuletzt geworden sein!

Alle kvinner, flykt fra Damoetas! Da jeg så ham for første gang følte jeg noe jeg aldri hadde følt før, det var... det var... jeg vet ikke hvordan; Jeg sukket, skalv og syntes å frydes; Tro meg, han må være en trollmann. Hvis jeg så på ham ble jeg het, snart var jeg rød, snart var jeg blek, Til slutt tok han meg i hånden; Hvem kan fortelle meg hva jeg da erfarte? Jeg så og hørte ingenting, Kunne ikke si annet enn ja og nei; Tro meg, han må være en trollmann. Han førte meg langt inn i dette krattet, Jeg ønsket å flykte, men fulgte ham straks; Han satte seg, jeg satte meg; Han talte, jeg stammet kun i stavelser; Hans øyne stirret, mine øyne ble smale; Tro meg, han må være en trollmann. Oppildnet trykket han meg til sitt bryst, jeg følte slik en søt smerte! Jeg svelget og pustet svært tungt, da kom heldigvis min mor mot oss; Hva ville, o guder, etter så mye magi ellers til slutt ha blitt av meg!
