Auf der fernen See ein Segel steht,
Mein Schatz ist [auf der]1 See;
Der Wind mir an die Beine weht,
Der Wind, der Wind [von]2 der See.
Blas ihn her zu mir, blas ihn [schnell zu mir her]3,
Du Wind, du Wind [auf der]4 See;
Mein Herz ist [so tief, so tief]5 wie das Meer
Und so stark wie der Wind auf der See.

Hi ha una vela en la mar llunyana
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Hi ha una vela en la mar llunyana,
el meu tresor és a la mar;
el vent bufa entre les meves cames,
el vent, el vent de la mar.
Porta-la cap a mi, porta-la ràpid cap a mi,
vet, vent de la mar!
El meu cor és tan profund, tan profund com la mar
i tan fort com el vent de la mar.
