Ich atmet' einen linden Duft!
Im Zimmer stand
Ein Zweig der Linde,
Ein Angebinde
Von lieber Hand.
Wie lieblich war der Lindenduft!

Wie lieblich ist der Lindenduft!
Das Lindenreis
Brachst du gelinde!
Ich atme leis
Im Duft der Linde
Der Liebe linden Duft.

¡Olía un suave aroma!
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the German (Deutsch) 
¡Olía un suave aroma!
En la habitación había
un ramito de tilo,
Un regalo
De alguien amado.
¡Qué delicioso era el aroma del tilo!

¡Qué delicioso es el aroma del tilo!
¡Ese ramito de tilo
Que suavemente cortásteis!
Suavemente aspiro
El aroma del tilo,
El aroma del amor.
