Ventecico murmurador
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Ventecico murmurador 
Que lo gozas y andas todo,
Hazme el son con las hojas del olmo,
Miéntras duerme mi lindo amor.

Hoy, ventecico suave,
Has de dar reposo á quien
Sabe desvelar mi bien,
Y dormir mi mal no sabe.
Procura tu mi favor,
Pues lo gozas y andas todo;
Hazme el son con las hojas del olmo,
Miéntras duerme mi lindo amor.

Tú que entre las verdes hojas
Andas alegre, y murmuras
De mis pasadas venturas
De mis presentes congojas,
Fresco, manso y bullidor,
Que lo gozas y andas todo,
Hazme el son con las hojas del olmo,
Miéntras duerme mi lindo amor.

Murmelndes Lüftchen
 (Sung text for setting by A. Dietrich)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Murmelndes Lüftchen, Blütenwind,
Der die schöne Welt durchwandelt,
Sing' ein Lied mit den Blätter der Ulme,
Denn es schläft mein süßes Kind.

Heute sollst du, sanfter West,
Schlummer über die ergiessen,
Die mich Frieden nicht geniessen,
Die mein Leid nicht schlafen lässt.
Wiege sie mir ein gelind,
Lüftchen, das die Welt durchwandelt,
Sing' ein Lied mit den Blätter der Ulme,
Denn es schläft mein süßes Kind.

Schweifest zwischen grünen Zweigen,
Lustig murmelnd von den Wonnen,
Die mir alle nun zerronnen,
Von dem Leid, das heut mich eigen.
Kühler, sanfter, plaudernder Wind,
Der die schöne Welt durchwandelt,
Sing' ein Lied mit den Blättern der Ulme,
Denn es schläft mein süßes Kind.
