Im Feld ein Mädchen singt
Language: German (Deutsch)
Im Feld ein Mädchen singt... Vielleicht ist ihr Liebster gestorben, Vielleicht ist ihr Glück verdorben, Dass ihr Lied so traurig klingt. Das Abendrot verglüht, Die Weiden stehn und schweigen, Und immer noch so eigen Tönt fern das traurige Lied. Der letzte Ton verklingt. Ich möchte zu ihr gehen. Wir müssten uns wohl verstehen, Da sie so traurig singt. Das Abendrot verglüht, Die Weiden stehn und schweigen.
R. Stöhr sets stanzas 1-3

Tuol laulaa neitonen
Language: Finnish (Suomi) after the German (Deutsch)
Tuol laulaa neitonen On kultansa hältä kai kuollut, on kaikista kallein ollut, Kun on laulunsa murheinen. Jo rusko raukeaa On vaiti kuuset kunnaan, Vaan vielä vienon kummaan Soi laulu murhetta vaan. Jo sävel sammui pois. Mä tahdon luokseen käydä. Me yhtehen voimme jäädä, Kun laulussaan murhe soi. Jo rusko raukeaa On vaiti kuuset kunnaan.
Note: from the Sibelius score.
