Wo ein treues Herze
 (Sung text for setting by W. Taubert)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT CHI DUT ENG FIN FRE GRE ITA KOR POR
Der Müller.
 Wo ein treues Herze
 In Liebe vergeht,
 Da welken die Lilien
 Auf jedem Beet.

 Da muß in die Wolken
 Der Vollmond gehn,
 Damit seine Thränen
 Die Menschen nicht sehn.

 Da halten die Englein
 Die Augen sich zu,
 Und schluchzen und singen
 Die Seele zu Ruh'.

El moliner i el rierol
 (Sung text translation for setting by W. Taubert)
 See original
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
El moliner:
 On un cor fidel
 es consumeix d'amor,
 allà es marceixen els lliris
 en cada planter.

 Allà, la lluna s'ha d'amagar
 darrere els núvols,
 per què els humans no puguin veure
 les seves llàgrimes.

 I els àngels 
 es tapen els ulls
 i ploren i canten
 per calmar l'ànima.
