Translation by Georg Friedrich Daumer (1800 - 1875)

Rede, Mädchen, allzu liebes
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  AFR CAT CHI DUT DUT ENG ENG FIN FRE ITA SPA
Rede, Mädchen, allzu liebes,
das mir in die Brust, die kühle,
hat geschleudert mit dem Blicke
diese wilden Glutgefühle!

Willst du nicht dein Herz erweichen,
willst du, eine Überfromme,
rasten ohne traute Wonne,
oder willst du, daß ich komme?

Rasten ohne traute Wonne,
nicht so bitter will ich büßen.
Komme nur, du schwarzes Auge.
Komme, wenn die Sterne grüßen.
