Vor der Tür
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE LIT SPA
Tritt auf den Riegel von der Tür,
Wie gern käm ich herein,
Um dich zu küssen.
"Ich laß dich nicht herein.
Schleich immer heim ganz sacht
Auf deinen Füssen."
Wohl kann ich schleichen sacht
Wie Mondenschein,
Steh nur auf, laß mich ein:
Das will ich von dir haben.
O Mägdlein, dein'n Knaben
Laß ein!

À la porte
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Tire le verrou de la porte,
Comme j'aimerais entrer
Pour t'embrasser.
« Je ne laisse pas entrer.
Va-t'en de ma maison tout doucement
Sur tes pieds. »
Je ne peux pas m'en aller aussi doucement
Que le clair de lune.
Lève-toi et laisse-moi entrer ;
C'est ce que je veux de toi,
Ô chérie, que ton amoureux
Entre !
