Wo die Berge so blau
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA LIT SPA
Wo die Berge so blau
Aus dem nebligen Grau
Schauen herein,
Wo die Sonne verglüht,
Wo die Wolke umzieht,
Möchte ich sein!

Dort im ruhigen Tal
Schweigen Schmerzen und Qual.
Wo im Gestein
Still die Primel dort sinnt,
Weht so leise der Wind,
Möchte ich sein!

Hin zum sinnigen Wald
Drängt mich Liebesgewalt,
Innere Pein.
Ach, mich zög's nicht von hier,
Könnt ich, Traute, bei dir
Ewiglich sein!

Kur kalnų žydruma
Language: Lithuanian (Lietuvių kalba)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Kur kalnų žydruma
Pro rūkų pilkumas
Žvelgia kažkur,
Ten, kur saulė pradings,
Debesėliai užslinks,
Noriu aš būt.

Šičia slėny ramiam
Dings skausmai ir kančia,
Tarp akmenų
Žydi gėlės ramiai,
Pučia vėjas švelniai,
Noriu čia būt.

Paslaptingan miškan
Meilės kančios nuves
Kančios pabus,
Neišeisiu iš čia,
Su tavim visada
Galėčiau būt.
