Mein Herz ist [zerrissen]1, du liebst mich nicht! Du ließest mich's wissen, du liebst mich nicht! Wiewol ich dir flehend und werbend erschien, Und liebebeflissen, du liebst mich nicht! Du hast es gesprochen, mit Worten gesagt, Mit allzugewissen, du liebst mich nicht! So soll ich die Sterne, so soll ich den Mond, Die Sonne vermissen? du liebst mich nicht! Was blüht mir die Rose? was blüht der Jasmin? Was blühn die Narzissen? du liebst mich nicht!

Mijn hart is gereten, je houdt niet van mij! Je liet het me weten, je houdt niet van mij! Hoezeer ik je biddend en smekend verscheen En liefdebezeten, je houdt niet van mij! Het is uitgesproken, met woorden gezegd, Te groot uitgemeten, je houdt niet van mij! Dus moet ik de sterren, dus moet ik de maan, De zon ook gaan missen, je wilt mij niet! Wat bloeien nog rozen, wat bloeit nog jasmijn, Wat bloeien narcissen, je wilt mij niet!
