Blühende Frauen,
Lasset euch schauen
Fröhlich im Tanze

Kommet, ihr Männer,

Dansa de maig

(Sung text translation for setting by K. Kummer)

See original

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

Dones esponeroses,
deixeu-vos veure
joioses en la dansa
sota la garlanda!
Danseu en parella
al so de les xeremies,
danseu en rotllana
joioses al mes de maig!

Coneixedors que inspeccioneu,
veniu, vosaltres homes,
mireu les nítides
imatges que s’apleguen
dansant en parelles
al so de les xeremies,
dansant en rotllana
joioses al mes de maig!

 ... 

...
...
 ... 

 ... 
jovencells, escolliu
abans que no quedi ningú,
danseu en parelles
al so de les xeremies,
danseu en rotllana
joiosos al mes de maig!
