Klinge, klinge, mein Pandero
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)
Klinge, klinge, mein Pandero, Doch an andres denkt mein Herz. Wenn du, muntres Ding, verständest Meine Qual und sie empfändest, Jeder Ton, den du entsendest, Würde klagen meinen Schmerz. Bei des Tanzes Drehn und Neigen Schlag' ich wild den Takt zum Reigen, Daß nur die Gedanken schweigen, Die mich mahnen an den Schmerz. Ach, ihr Herrn, dann will im Schwingen Oftmals mir die Brust zerspringen, Und zum Angstschrei wird mein Singen, Denn an andres denkt mein Herz.

The Gipsy girl
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Tinkle, tinkle, my Pandero! But my heart is full of woe. Could’st thou, merry things, be guessing All my secret thoughts distressing, Ev’ry note were soon expressing Gentle pity for my pain. When the dance around is wheeling, To my music, bending, reeling, 'Tis but outward show concealing From the world my bosom’s pain. Oft, when I am lightly springing, Such deep woe my heart is wringing, That, amid my loudest singing, Notes of anguish speak my pain.
