Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG ENG FRE

Auf einem grünen Hügel
  Da steht ein Röslein hell,
Und wenn ich roth, roth Röslein seh' --
So roth wie lauter Liebe --
  Möcht' weinen ich zur Stell'!

Auf einem grünen Hügel
  Da stehn zwei Blümlein blau,
Und wenn ich blau, blau Blümlein seh' --
So blau, wie blaue Äuglein,
  Durch Thränen ich sie schau'!

 ... 

Auf einem grünen Hügel
  Da singt ein Vögelein;
Mir ist's, als säng's: Wer niemals Leid --
Recht großes Leid erfahren,
  Wird nie recht glücklich sein!

Damunt d’un verd tossal

(Sung text translation for setting by C. Schumann)

See original

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Damunt d’un verd tossal
hi ha una petita rosa lluminosa
i quan jo veig la rosa vermella, vermella,
tan vermella com l’amor sincer,
voldria plorar en aquell mateix lloc!

Damunt d’un verd tossal
hi ha dues floretes blaves
i quan jo veig les flors blaves, blaves,
tan blaves com uns petits ulls,
les esguardo a través de les meves llàgrimes!
