Klagen ist der Mond gekommen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)
Klagen ist der Mond [gekommen]1, Vor der Sonne Angesicht, Soll ihm noch der Himmel frommen, Da du Glanz ihm nahmst und Licht? Seine Sterne ging er zählen, Und er will vor Leid vergehn: Zwei der schönsten Sterne fehlen, Die in deinem Antlitz stehn.

La lluna ha vingut a queixar‑se
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
La lluna ha vingut a queixar-se, davant la faç del sol, de què em serveix el cel, si tu m’has pres l’esplendor i la llum? Ha anat comptant les seves estrelles, i ella vol morir de pena: en manquen dues de les més formoses, i són les que estan al teu rostre.
