Ach, mir ist das Herz so schwer!
Traurig irr' ich hin und her,
Suche [Ruh und]1 finde keine,
Geh ans Fenster hin, und weine!
Sässest du auf meinem Schooß,
Würd ich aller Sorgen los,
Und aus deinen blauen Augen
Würd ich Lieb' und Wonne saugen!
Könnt' ich doch, du süsses Kind,
Fliegen hin zu dir geschwind!
Könnt ich ewig dich umfangen,
Und an deinen Lippen hangen!

Ai, el meu cor és tan feixuc!
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Ai, el meu cor és tan feixuc!
Erro trist d’un cantó a l’altre,
cerco la pau i no la trobo enlloc,
vaig a la finestra i ploro!
Si seguessis a la meva falda,
m’alliberaria de totes les penes,
i dels teus ulls blaus,
xuclaria amor i delit!
Si pogués, oh dolça criatura,
volar rabent cap a tu!
Podria abraçar-te per sempre
i restar suspès als teus llavis!
