Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald

(Sung text for setting by G. Mahler)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald,
Ich hört' die Vöglein singen,
Sie sangen so jung, sie sangen so alt,
Die kleinen Waldvögelein im grünen Wald,
Wie gern hört' ich sie singen.

Nun sing, nun sing, Frau Nachtigall,
Sing du's bei meinem Feinsliebchen:
„Komm schier, komm schier, wenn's finster ist,
Wenn niemand auf der Gassen ist,
Dann komm zu mir!
Herein will ich dich lassen.”

Der Tag verging, die Nacht brach an,
Er kam zu Feinsliebchen gegangen.
Er klopft so leis wohl an den Ring,
Ei schläfst du, oder wachst du, mein Kind?
Ich hab' so lang gestanden. 
Es schaut der Mond durchs Fensterlein 
zum holden, süßen Lieben,
Die Nachtigall sang die ganze Nacht.
Du schlafselig Mägdelein, nimm dich in Acht!
Wo ist dein Herzliebster geblieben?

Caminava amb joia per un verd boscatge

(Sung text translation for setting by G. Mahler)

See original

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

Caminava amb joia per un verd boscatge,
sentia cantar els ocellets;
cantaven tan jovenívols, cantaven tan vellards,
els petits ocellets al verd boscatge!
De grat els escoltava cantar!

Canta ara, canta ara, senyor rossinyol!
Canta prop de la casa de la meva estimada:
“vine quan tot just es fa fosc,
quan no hi ha ningú al carrer,
aleshores vine a casa meva!
Jo et deixaré entrar!”

S’acabà el dia, la nit caigué,
ell arribà a casa de l’estimada.
Trucà suaument amb el picaporta:
Ei, dorms o vetlles, tu criatura meva?
He esperat tant de temps!
La lluna esguarda a través de la finestra
l’encisadora, dolça estimada,
el rossinyol ha cantat tota la nit.
Tu noia endormiscada, vés en compte!
On ha restat el teu estimat?
