Herzeleid
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA
Die Weiden lassen matt die Zweige hangen,
Und traurig ziehn die Wasser hin:
Sie schaute starr hinab mit bleichen Wangen,
Die unglückselge Träumerin.

Und ihr entfiel ein Strauss von Immortellen,
Er war so schwer von Tränen ja,
Und leise warnend lispelten die Wellen:
Ophelia, Ophelia!

Pena del cor
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Esllanguides penjaven les branques dels salzes,
i tristament corrien les aigües:
ella esguardava cap a baix, pàl·lides les galtes,
la infortunada somiadora.

I ella deixà caure un ram de semprevives,
car ja era ben feixuc de llàgrimes,
i, com un advertiment, les ones xiuxiuejaven fluixet:
Ofèlia, Ofèlia!
