Ich bin die Blum' im Garten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Ich bin die Blum' im Garten,
Und muß in Stille warten,
Wann und in welcher Weise
Du trittst in meine Kreise.

Kommst du, ein Strahl der Sonne,
So werd' ich deiner Wonne
Den Busen still entfalten
Und deinen Blick behalten.

Kommst du als Tau und Regen,
So werd' ich deinen Segen
In Liebesschalen fassen,
Ihn nicht versiegen lassen.

Und fährtest du gelinde
Hin über mich im Winde,
So werd' ich dir mich neigen,
Sprechend: Ich bin dein eigen.

Ich bin die Blum' im Garten,
Und muß in Stille warten,
Wann und in welcher Weise
Du trittst in meine Kreise.

Sóc la flor al jardí
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Sóc la flor al jardí
i haig d’esperar en silenci,
per veure quan i de quina manera
tu se m’atansaràs.

Si véns com un raig de sol,
llavors, a la teva fruïció,
obriré quietament el meu cor
i em recordaré del teu esguard.

Si véns com rosada o pluja,
recolliré la teva benedicció
en un calze d’amor
i no deixaré que s’assequi.

I si tu passessis suaument
al meu damunt en el vent,
m’inclinaria cap a tu
dient: Sóc tota teva.

Sóc la flor al jardí
i haig d’esperar en silenci,
per veure quan i de quina manera
tu se m’atansaràs.
