Singable translation by L. Weinhold

Translation © by Lidy van Noordenburg

Geh nicht, verlaß mich nicht

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Hungarian (Magyar)

Our translations: DUT

Geh nicht, verlaß mich nicht,
geh nicht, o bleibe doch,
denn wenn du fortgehst,
so drückt mir Kummer nieder.
Traurig vor Sehsucht und einsam im Herzen,
wie könnte ich, wie könnt' ich ohne dich leben.
Solang ich leb' wirst auch du in mir leben,
und kehrst du zurück erst,
so wirst du allzeit bleiben,
kehrst du zurück zu mir,
wirst du allzeit bleiben, allzeit bei mir bleiben,
immer mit mir leben.

Ga niet weg, verlaat me niet

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Ga niet weg, verlaat me niet,
ga niet weg, o blijf toch hier,
want als jij weggaat
dan slaat verdriet mij teneer
Treurig van verlangen en eenzaam van hart,
hoe zou ik, hoe zou ik zonder jou kunnen leven?
Zo lang ik leef zul jij ook in mij leven
pas als je terugkomt,
dan zul je altijd blijven,
keer je terug naar mij,
dan zul je altijd blijven, altijd bij mij blijven,
voorgoed met mij leven.
