Wir müssen uns trennen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA LIT TUR
Wir müssen uns trennen,
Geliebtes Saitenspiel,
Zeit ist es, zu rennen
Nach dem fernen, erwünschten Ziel.

Ich ziehe zum Streite,
Zum Raube hinaus,
Und hab' ich die Beute,
Dann flieg' ich nach Haus.

Im rötlichen Glanze
Entflieh' ich mit ihr,
Es schützt uns die Lanze,
Der Stahlharnisch hier.

Kommt, liebe Waffenstücke,
Zum Scherz oft angetan,
Beschirmet jetzt mein Glücke
Auf dieser neuen Bahn!

Ich werfe mich rasch in die Wogen,
Ich grüße den herrlichen Lauf,
Schon mancher ward niedergezogen,
Der tapfere Schwimmer bleibt obenauf.

Ha! Lust zu vergeuden
Das edele Blut!
Zu schützen die Freude,
Mein köstliches Gut!
Nicht Hohn zu erleiden,
Wem fehlt es an Mut?

Senke die Zügel,
Glückliche Nacht!
Spanne die Flügel,
Daß über ferne Hügel
Uns schon der Morgen lacht!

Artık ayrılmalıyız
Language: Turkish (Türkçe)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Artık ayrılmalıyız, 
Sevgili lavtam, 
Zamanı geldi, gitme zamanı, 
Uzaklara, arzulanan hedefe. 

Ben savaşmaya gidiyorum,
Yağmaya uzaklara. 
Avımı ele geçirince 
Eve döneceğim. 

Sabah kızıllığında 
Onunla kaçacağım, 
Bizi mızrak korur, 
Ve şu çelik zırh.

Gelin sevgili silahlarım, 
Çoğu kez şaka niyetine takındım sizi, 
Şimdi mutluluğumu koruyun 
Bu yeni yolda!

Kendimi hemen dalgalara atıyorum, 
O harikulade yolculuğu selamlıyorum; 
Bazıları derinlere sürüklendi 
Ama cesur yüzücü satıhta kalır.

Ha! Ne zevktir akıtmak 
soylu kanını! 
Korumak için mutluluğumu, 
benim en değerli varlığımı! 
Aşağılanmanın acısını çekmemek için, 
Buna kimin cesareti yok ki? 

Salıver dizginlerini, 
mutlu gece! 
Kanatlarını aç ki 
Uzak tepelerden 
Artık sabah gülümsemeye başlasın.
