Meine Liebe ist grün wie der Fliederbusch, und mein Lieb ist schön wie die Sonne, die glänzt wohl herab auf den Fliederbusch und füllt ihn mit Duft und mit Wonne. Meine Seele hat Schwingen der Nachtigall, und wiegt sich in blühendem Flieder, und jauchzet und singet vom Duft berauscht viel liebestrunkene Lieder.

Meu amor é tão novo como o lilás, e meu amor é belo como o sol; que brilha sobre o lilás e o preenche de perfume e de felicidade. Meu amor tem asas do rouxinol e se balança entre os lilases em flor e, inebriado pelo perfume, se rejubila e canta, muitas canções ébrias de amor.
