Cine m‑aude cîntînd

Language: Romanian (Română)

Our translations: GER

Cine m-aude cîntînd,
Zice că n-am nici un gînd.
Gîndul care-l gîndesc eu,
Nu î-l deie Dumnezeu.
Că nu cînt că știu cînta,
Dami mai stîmpăr inima.

Jeder, der mich singen hört

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Romanian (Română)

Jeder, der mich singen hört,
meint, dass mich wohl nichts beschwert.
Doch das, was mich beschwert und lenkt,
ward mir nicht von Gott geschenkt:
Weil ich es kann, singe ich nicht -
ich sing, weil mir das Herze bricht.
