Cubridme de flores
Language: Spanish (Español)
Cubridme de flores que muero de amores! Porque de su aliento el aire no lleve el olor sublime, cubridme! sea porque todo es uno alientos de amor y olores de flores. De azuzenas y jazmines aqui la mortaja espero, que muero! Si me preguntais de qué respondo: en dulces rigores de amores.

Bedeckt mich mit Blumen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)
Bedeckt mich mit Blumen,
Ich sterbe vor Liebe.
Daß die Luft mit leisem Wehen
nicht den süßen Duft [mir]1 entführe,
Bedeckt mich!
[Ist ja alles doch dasselbe,
Liebesodem oder Düfte
Von Blumen.]2
Von Jasmin und weißen Lilien
sollt ihr hier mein Grab bereiten,
Ich sterbe.
Und befragt ihr mich: Woran?
sag' ich: Unter süßen Qualen
Vor Liebe.
