Da nachts wir uns küßten, o Mädchen, hat keiner uns zugeschaut. Die Sterne, die standen am Himmel, wir haben den Sternen getraut. Es ist ein Stern gefallen, der hat dem Meer uns verklagt, da hat das Meer es dem Ruder, das Ruder dem Schiffer gesagt. Da sang der selbige Schiffer es seiner Liebsten vor. Nun singen's auf Straßen und Märkten die Knaben und Mädchen im Chor.

Mentre de nit es besàvem, oh noia, ningú ens estava mirant. Les estrelles que estaven al cel, en elles havíem confiat. Fou una estrella que caigué la que ens delatà al mar, llavors el mar ho digué al rem, i el rem ho digué al mariner. Després, el mateix mariner ho cantà davant la seva estimada. Ara, als carrers i als mercats, els nois i les noies ho canten en un cor.
