An meiner Seite sassest du, Wie eine Blume schön, An meiner Seite blühtest du, Eine Rose anzuseh'n. Ach, was sind Rosen auf dem Feld, In aller ihrer Pracht, Ach, was ist mir die ganze Welt, Wenn dein süsser Mund mir lacht, Kein Veilchen wie dein Auge blau, Keine Rose wie dein Gesicht, Du bist meine liebe, kleine Frau, Meine Welt und mein Gedicht.

À mon côté, tu étais assise, Comme une belle fleur, À mon côté, tu fleurissais, Comme si je voyais une rose. Ah ! que sont les roses dans le champ Dans toute leur splendeur, Ah ! qu'est pour moi le monde entier, Quand ta douce bouche me sourit. Il n'y a pas de violette comme tes yeux bleus, Aucune rose comme ton visage. Tu es ma chère petite femme, Mon monde et mon poème.
