Mich hat der Herbst betrogen,
Dir, Mutter, sei's geklagt:
Die Schwalb' ist [weggezogen]1,
Und hat mir's nicht gesagt.
Und hat [mir]2 weggenommen
Das Licht, den Sonnenschein,
Und wenn sie wiederkommen,
Werd' ich gestorben sein.

La tardor m’ha enganyat
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
La tardor m’ha enganyat,
a tu mare em planyo.
L’oreneta ha marxat,
sense dir-me res!
I amb ella s’ha endut
la llum, la lluïssor del sol
i quan torni a venir,
jo ja seré mort.
