Wenn zwei von einander scheiden
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wenn zwei von einander scheiden, So geben sie sich die Händ', Und fangen an zu weinen, Und seufzen ohne End'. Wir haben nicht [geweinet]1, Wir seufzten nicht Weh und Ach! Die [Tränen und die [Seufzer]2, Die kamen hinten nach.

Когда разлучаются двое
Language: Russian (Русский) after the German (Deutsch)
Когда разлучаются двое, то руки друг другу дают, и горько вздыхать начинают, и слезы горючия лыют. А мы стобой не вздыхали, без стонов прощанье снесли, Тяжелые вздохи и слезы Уж после разлуки пришли.
