Language: German (Deutsch) 
Rede, Mädchen, allzu liebes,
das mir in die Brust, die kühle,
hat geschleudert mit dem Blicke
diese wilden Glutgefühle!

Willst du nicht dein Herz erweichen,
willst du, eine Überfromme,
rasten ohne traute Wonne,
oder willst du, daß ich komme?

Rasten ohne traute Wonne,
nicht so bitter will ich büßen.
Komme nur, du schwarzes Auge.
Komme, wenn die Sterne grüßen.

Language: Catalan (Català) 
Parla, noia, massa estimada,
que, en el meu cor gèlid,
has vessat, amb el teu esguard
aquests salvatges i ardents sentiments.

No vols pas ablanir el teu cor,
vols com una beata, 
restar sense delícies íntimes,
o vols que jo vingui?

Restar sense delícies íntimes,
no vull pas expiar una pena tan amarga.
Vine doncs, tu la dels ulls negres.
Vine, quan et saluden els estels.

Was hebst du dich nicht himmelwärts?

Was ist so schwer dein Herz?

Wie höbe sich die Ranke,

Wie wäre die Dirne fröhlich,
wenn ihr das Liebste weit?

Els verds sarments de llúpol,
serpentegen sobre la terra.
La jove, bella noia,
que trist és el seu esperit!

Escolta tu, verd sarment!
Per què no t'enlaires vers el cel?
Escolta tu, bella noia!
Per què el teu cor és tan feixuc?

Com pot enlairar-se el sarment,
si cap suport el reforça?
Com pot estar la noia alegre
si el seu enamorat és lluny?

Ein kleiner, hübscher Vogel
nahm den Flug
zum Garten hin,
da gab es Obst genug.
Wenn ich ein hübscher,

ich täte so wie der.

Leimruten-Arglist

der arme Vogel

Wenn ich ein hübscher,

Un petit, bonic ocell
prengué el vol
vers el jardí,
on hi havia fruita a bastament.
Si jo fos un bonic,

faria com ell.   

Branques envescades

el pobre ocell
no pogué alliberar-se.

Wohl schön bewandt
War es vorehe
Mit meinem Leben,
Mit meiner Liebe;
Durch eine Wand,
Ja durch zehn Wände,
Erkannte mich
Des Freundes Sehe;
Doch jetzo, wehe,
Wenn ich dem Kalten
Auch noch so dicht
Vor'm Auge stehe,
Es merkt's sein Auge,
Sein Herze nicht.

Ben bé satisfeta
estava abans,
amb la meva vida,
amb el meu amor;
a través d'una paret,
sí, a través de deu parets,
em reconeixia
l'esguard del meu amic.
Però ara, ai de mi!
Quan em trobo a frec
dels seus ulls indiferents,
ni ells, 
ni el seu cor, 
em reconeixen.

zehn eiserne Riegel

Zehn eiserne Riegel

A la platja del Danubi,

on una noia amb galtes color de rosa
mira cap enfora.

La noia,

deu baldes de ferro
estan clavades a la porta.

Deu baldes de ferro,
això és una plasenteria;
