Venetianisches Gondellied

(Sung text for setting by F. Mendelssohn)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch) after the English

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG ENG FRE ITA ITA LIT

Wenn durch die Piazetta
Die Abendluft weht,
Dann weißt du, Ninetta,
Wer wartend hier steht.
Du weißt, wer trotz Schleier
Und Maske dich kennt,
Du weisst, wie die Sehnsucht 
Im Herzen mir brennt.

Ein Schifferkleid trag' ich
Zur selbigen Zeit,
Und zitternd dir sag' ich:
„Das Boot ist bereit!
O, komm’! jetzt, wo Lune’n
Noch Wolken umziehn,
Laß durch die Lagunen,
Geliebte uns fliehn!“

Venecijietiška gondoljero daina

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Mendelssohn)

See original

Language: Lithuanian (Lietuvių kalba) after the German (Deutsch)

Kai per aikštę
Pučia vakaro vėjelis,
Tu, Nineta, žinai,
Kas čia laukdamas stovi.
Tu žinai, kas per šydą
Ir po kauke tave atpažįsta,
Tu žinai, kaip ilgesys
Dega mano širdyje.

Aš šiuo metu apsirengęs
Žvejo drabužiais 
Ir virpėdamas tau sakau:
“Valtis paruošta”.
O, ateik dabar, kol mėnulį
Dar slepia debesys,
Bėkime kartu
Per lagūną, mylimoji.
