Sag mir doch den Weg

Chosen for Diff
Sag mir doch den Weg, Lieb,
wo du von mir scheidest,
sag mir's, und ich pflüge ihn mit goldner Pflugschar;
sähen will ich auch, mit Perlen ihn besäen,
und mit Tränen netzen, kummervollen Tränen,
ach, will den Weg mit kummervollen Tränen netzen.

Vertel mij toch de weg
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)  after the German (Deutsch)
Chosen for Diff
Vertel me toch, lief, de weg
waar je van mij heengaat,
zeg het me en ik ploeg hem om met een gouden ploegschaar;
ik wil ook zaaien, hem met parels bezaaien
en met tranen besproeien, verdrietige tranen,
ach, ik wil de weg met verdrietige tranen besproeien.
