Du denkst mit einem Fädchen mich zu...

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Du denkst mit einem Fädchen mich zu fangen,
Mit einem Blick schon mich verliebt zu machen?
Ich fing schon Andre, die sich höher schwangen;
Du darfst mir ja nicht trau'n, siehst du mich lachen.
Schon Andre fing ich, glaub' es sicherlich.
Ich bin verliebt, doch eben nicht in dich.

Penses que amb un petit fil em pots...

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Penses que amb un petit fil em pots atrapar,
que amb un esguard pots fer que m’enamori de tu?
Jo n’he atrapat d’altres que volaven més alt;
no m’hauries de creure quan em veus rient.
Ja n’he atrapat d’altres, creu-ho de ben segur.
Estic enamorat, però no pas de tu.
