Auf dem Dorf in den Spinnstuben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Auf dem Dorf in den Spinnstuben
Sind lustig die Mädchen.
Hat jedes seinen Herzbuben,
Wie flink geht das Rädchen!

Spinnt jedes am Brautschatz,
Daß der Liebste sich freut.
Nicht lange, so gibt es
Ein Hochzeitsgeläut!

Kein' Seel', die mir gut ist,
Kommt mit mir zu plaudern;
Gar schwül mir zu Mut ist,
Und die Hände zaudern.

Und die Tränen mir rinnen
Leis übers Gesicht.
Wofür soll ich spinnen,
Ich weiß es ja nicht!

Al poble, a la cambra de filadores
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Al poble, a la cambra de filadores,
les noies estan alegres.
Cadascuna té el seu estimat del cor,
que ràpid gira el torn!

Totes filen llur nuviatge
per plaure a l’estimat.
D’aquí a poc es faran sentir
les campanes de noces!

Però a mi cap cor m’estima,
ningú ve a parlar amb mi;
em sento ben oprimida,
i les mans em tremolen.

I les llàgrimes regalimen
en silenci a les meves galtes.
Per quina raó haig de filar,
no ho sé pas!
