Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich in deine Augen [seh']1,
So schwindet [all' mein Leid]2 und Weh; 
Doch wenn ich küße deinen Mund,
So werd' ich ganz und gar gesund.

Wenn ich mich lehn' an deine Brust,
Kommt's über mich wie Himmelslust;
Doch wenn du sprichst: ich liebe dich!
[So]3 muß ich weinen bitterlich.

1. Quando ti guardo negli occhi
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Quando ti guardo negli occhi,
svanisce ogni mia pena e dolore;
e quando bacio la tua bocca
si risana tutto il mio essere.

Quando giaccio sul tuo petto,
scende su di me una gioia celeste;
ma quando dici: Ti amo!
piango lacrime amare.

Den sie mir einst gegeben
In wunderbar süßer Stund'.

2. Voglio tuffare la mia anima
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Voglio tuffare la mia anima
nel calice del giglio;
il giglio con dolce suono rievocherà
una canzone dell'amore mio.

La canzone tremerà con un brivido
come il bacio della sua bocca,
che lei mi diede una volta
in un'ora dolcissima e stupenda!

Das Lied der Nachtigall.

3. Dalla mie lacrime nascono
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Dalla mie lacrime nascono
tanti fiori che sbocciano,
e i miei sospiri diventano
un coro di usignoli.

E se tu mi hai caro, bimba,
regalo a te tutti i miei fiori
e alla tua finestra risuonerà
il canto degli usignoli.

4. Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio,
quando tutti i boccioli si schiudevano,
allora nel mio cuore
l'amore è entrato.

Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio,
quando tutti gli uccelli cantavano,
allora ho confessato a lei
il mio struggimento e il mio desiderio.
