Ich hörte ein Sichlein rauschen

(Sung text for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

  Ich hörte ein Sichlein rauschen,
Wohl rauschen durch das Korn;
Ich hört ein Mägdlein klagen,
Sie hätt ihr Lieb verlorn.

  Laß rauschen, Lieb, laß rauschen!
Ich acht nicht, wie es geh;
Ich thät mein Lieb vertauschen
In Veiel und grünem Klee

  Hast du ein Buhlen erworben 
In Veiel und grünem Klee
So steh ich hier alleine;
Thut meinem Herzen weh.

Ik hoord' een beekje ruisen

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Ik hoord' een beekje ruisen
zacht ruisen door het koorn
Ik hoorde een meisje huilen
Zij had haar lief verloren.

Laat ruisen, lief, laat ruisen
'k let niet op hoe 't gaat
Ik zou mijn lief hier ruilen
bij violen en groene klaver.

Heb jij een vrijer veroverd
bij violen en groene klaver,
Sta ik hier in mijn eentje
Met mijn hart vol smart.
