Wenn die Linde blüht, wenn die Linde blüht,
Sind die jungen, jungen Gänschen da,
Wenn [ich dann die]1 jungen Gänschen hüt',
Ist mein Liebster da, ist mein Liebster da.
Wenn [mich]2 dann mein lieber Liebster küßt,
Gehn die Gänschen in die Saat hinein,
Wenn's der Bauer wüßt', wenn's der Bauer wüßt' --
Lieber Liebster, laß das Küssen sein!

Quand le tilleul fleurit
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Quand le tilleul fleurit,
Les jeunes oiseaux sont là.
Et quand je surveille les jeunes oiseaux,
Ma bien-aimée arrive.
Quand alors ma bien-aimée m'embrasse,
Les jeunes oiseaux vont dans le champ de blé.
Si le fermier le savait,
Ma chère bien-aimée, arrête ces baisers.
