Es wollt die Jungfrau früh aufstehn,
Wollt in des Vaters Garten gehn,
Rot Röslein wollt sie brechen ab,
Davon wollt sie sich machen,
Ein Kränzelein wohl schön.
...
Sie ging im Garten her und hin,
Statt Röslein fand sie Rosmarin:
"So bist du, mein Getreuer hin!
Kein Röslein ist zu finden,
Kein Kränzelein so schön."
Sie gieng im Garten her und hin,
Statt Röslein fand sie Rosmarin:
"Das nimm du, mein Getreuer, hin!
Lieg bei dir unter Linden,
Mein Totenkränzlein fein."

La donzella volia llevar-se d'hora,
volia anar al jardí del seu pare.
Volia collir rosetes vermelles
i fer-se, amb elles,
una petita corona, ben bonica.
...
Ella anà d'una banda a l'altra dels camps
i en lloc de roses trobà romaní:
"Així doncs tu, fidel amic, te'n has anat!
No es troben roses
i no hi haurà cap corona bonica."
Ella anà d'una banda a l'altra del jardí,
i en lloc de roses portà romaní:
"Accepta això, fidel amic meu!
Restaré amb tu sota els til·lers,
amb la meva petita, bonica corona de morts."
