Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Nicht länger kann ich singen, denn der Wind
Weht stark und macht dem Athem was zu schaffen.
Auch fürcht' ich, daß die Zeit umsonst verrinnt.
Ja wär' ich sicher, ging' ich jetzt nicht schlafen.
Ja wüßt' ich was, würd' ich nicht heimspazieren
Und einsam diese schöne Zeit verlieren.

Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
No puc cantar per més temps, perquè el vent
bufa fort i em fa perdre l’alè.
Tinc por també de què el temps passi en va.
Si n’estigués segur, ara no aniria al llit.
Si sabés alguna cosa, no tornaria a casa
i no perdria aquest agradable temps tot sol.
