by Vasile Alecsandri (1821 - 1890)
Translation by Josef Wiedemann (1828 - 1919)
Păstorul zise: Cinel‑cinel
Language: Romanian (Română)
Păstorul zise: „Cinel-cinel, Copilei june de lângă el. Două steluţe cu raze line Lasat-au ceriul plin de lumine Şi pe-a ta frunte ele-au căzut. Gâci, drăguliţă, că le sărut.“ Nu gâci-ndată Gingaşa fată, Şi pe ochi dulce fu sărutată. Păstorul zise încă: „Cinel, Copilei blânde de lângă el. O vezi închisă, rumenă floare, Cum se deschide, vezi lăcrimioare, Şi pe-a ta faţă ea s-au născut. Gâci, drăguliţă, că o sărut.“ Nu gâci-ndată Vesela fată, Şi pe guriţă fu sărutată. Păstorul zise iară: „Cinel, Copilei mândre de lângă el. Albe, rotunde, două-aripioare Nencetat saltă, la cer să zboare, Şi tu-n robie le-ai tot ţinut. Gâci, drăguliţă, că le sărut.“ Nu gâci-ndată Rumena fată, Şi pe sân fraged fu sărutată.

Es sprach der Knabe: Mein süßes Kind, nun rat' einmal doch nur recht geschwind! Leise vom Himmel mit hellem Scheine zwei holde Sterne, glänzende, reine, sie fielen herab auf die Stirne dir sacht; Rate, mein Liebchen, was ich gedacht! Wollt' es nicht wissen, trugesbeflissen: Ihre Augen musste er küssen. Es sprach der Knabe: Mein trautes Kind, nun rat' einmal doch nur recht geschwind! Ich seh' ein Blümchen herrlich erblühen, perlenbetauet leuchten und glühen, am lieblichen Antlitz ist dir es erwacht; Rate, mein Liebchen, was ich gedacht! Wollt' es nicht wissen, trugesbeflissen: Und ihr Mündchen musste er küssen. Es sprach der Knabe: Mein holdes Kind, nun rat' einmal doch nur recht geschwind! Schimmernd zwei weiße Flügel sich heben, dehnen sich freudig, zum Himmel sie streben, in Fesseln hast du beide gebracht; Rate, mein Liebchen, was ich gedacht! Wollt' es nicht wissen, trugesbeflissen: Ihren Busen musste er küssen.
