Le bergerette, avee courage

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: GER

Le bergerette, avee courage
Luttant déjá, 
Du joli piège sous I'ombrage
Se dégagea.
Deux jours après, Iâme brûlante,
D'un doux émoi, 
Elle revint, pâle et tremblante.
Ne sais pourquoi. 

Deux jours plus tard, grandes alarmes.
Pauvre Lison 
Attendit seule et toute en larmes,
Près du buisson. 
Le beau berger guettait loi, d'elle
Minois piquant. 
Il reviendra vers sa fidèle,
On ne sait quand.

Die kleine Hirtin befreite sich

Language: German (Deutsch) after the French (Français)

Die kleine Hirtin befreite sich, 
Voller Mut eifrig kämpfend,
Aus der hübschen Falle unter dem Schatten
Nach zwei Tagen, 
Mit glühender Seele von einer sanften Erregung,
Kam sie zurück, blass und zitternd.
Ich weiß nicht warum.
 
Noch zwei Tage später ein großer Schrecken,
Die arme Lison
Wartete alleine, ganz in Tränen aufgelöst,
Nahe beim Gebüsch.
Der schöne Schäfer erspähte nicht weit von ihr
Ein anderes verlockendes Gesichtchen.
Er wird zu seiner Treuen zurückkehren,
Man weiß nur nicht wann.
