Stricknadeln, blank und blinkend, In ihrem grauen Haar, Sitzt die Duenna murmelnd, Im roten Röckchen da. Sie wartet in der Laube, Sie liebt Pierrot mit Schmerzen, Stricknadeln, blank und blinkend, In ihrem grauen Haar. Da plötzlich - horch! - ein Wispern! Ein Windhauch kichert leise: Der Mond, der böse Spötter, Äfft nach mit seinen Strahlen - Stricknadeln, blink und blank.

編織針，明亮而閃爍， 插在她灰色的髮絲中， 保姆坐著 喃喃自語， 穿著她的紅色短裙。 她在涼亭裏等候， 她痛苦地愛慕著皮耶羅， 編織針，明亮而閃爍， 插在她灰色的髮絲中。 就在剎那間－聽！－一陣耳語！ 揚起的風兒輕輕地竊笑著： 月亮，這可惡的嘲笑者， 正以它的光芒逗弄著－ 編織針，既明亮又閃爍。
