Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kleinen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kleinen, Wie tief verwundet mein Herz, Sie würden mit mir weinen, Zu heilen meinen Schmerz. Und wüßten's die Nachtigallen, Wie ich so traurig und krank, Sie ließen fröhlich erschallen Erquickenden Gesang. Und wüßten sie mein Wehe, Die [goldnen]1 Sternelein, Sie kämen aus ihrer Höhe, Und sprächen Trost mir ein. [Die]2 alle können's nicht wissen, Nur [eine]3 kennt meinen Schmerz; [Sie]4 hat ja selbst zerrissen, Zerrissen mir das Herz.

Dá mbeadh fhios ag na blátha bídeach’
Language: Irish (Gaelic) after the German (Deutsch)
Dá mbeadh fhios ag na blátha bídeach’ Na pianta atá im’ chliabh, Bheidís liomsa ag caoineadh: Íocshláinte do mo chroí. Dá mbeadh fhios ag an bhfiliméala Go bhfuilim i bpéin, faoi bhrón Do chanfadh os ard dea-scéala Mo leigheas bheadh ann gan ghó. Dá dtuigfidís mo chás-sa Na réilthíní beaga óir Do bheidís chugam ó na flaithis Ní bheinn arís faoi bhrón. Ní thuigeann éinne acu mo chrása Ag duine amháin atá fhios Í siúd ar thugas mo ghrá di Ba ise a dhein an scrios.
