'Frauenhaar' trag' ich am Hute
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT FRE
'Frauenhaar' trag' ich am Hute,
Wie Flachs so weich, wie Seide so fein,
Flirrfädelnd spinnt's im Sonnenschein,
Flott flatterts in den Wind hinein,
Ich trag' es mit fröhlichem Mute,
Und denke dein,
Mein Seidenhaar,
Die meine Sonne, mein Sehnen war,
Mein Leben im bebenden Blute,
Du Weiche, du Feine, du Gute.

Cheveux de Vénus
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Sur mon chapeau je porte des "cheveux de Vénus".
Aussi souples que le lin, aussi fins que la soie,
Fils vibrants filés dans les rayons de soleil,
Ils volettent avec vivacité dans le vent,
Je le porte joyeusement,
Et je pense à toi,
Toi aux cheveux de soie,
Qui fus mon soleil, mon désir,
Ma vie au cœur tremblant,
Toi douce, toi fine, toi bonne.
