Die grüne Hopfenranke,
sie schlängelt auf der Erde hin.
Die junge, schöne Dirne,
so traurig ist ihr Sinn!
Du höre, grüne Ranke!
Was hebst du dich nicht himmelwärts?
Du höre, schöne Dirne!
Was ist so schwer dein Herz?
Wie höbe sich die Ranke,
der keine Stütze Kraft verleiht?
Wie wäre die Dirne fröhlich,
wenn ihr das Liebste weit?

Les verts sarments de houblon
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Les verts sarments de houblon
Serpentent sur la terre.
Jeune et belle fille,
Que tes pensées sont tristes !
Écoute, vert sarment !
Pourquoi ne t'élèves-tu pas vers le ciel ?
Écoute, jolie fille !
Pourquoi as-tu le cœur si lourd ?
Comment le rameau pourrait-il s'élever
Sans qu'on lui prête appui ?
Comment la fille pourrait-elle être gaie,
Quand son bien-aimé est loin d'elle ?
