In dem Schatten meiner Locken Schlief mir mein Geliebter ein. Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein! Sorglich strählt' ich meine krausen Locken täglich in der Frühe, Doch umsonst ist meine Mühe, Weil die Winde sie zerzausen. Lockenschatten, Windessausen Schläferten den Liebsten ein. Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein! Hören muß ich, wie ihn gräme, Daß er schmachtet schon so lange, Daß ihm Leben [geb' und nehme]1 Diese meine braune Wange, Und er nennt mich seine Schlange, Und doch schlief er bei mir ein. Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein!

A l’ombra dels meus rínxols el meu estimat s’ha adormit. El desperto ara? – Ai, no! Amb cura pentino els meus embullats rínxols cada dia al matí, però inútil és el meu afany, perquè el vent me’ls embrolla. L’ombra dels rínxols, la remor del vent, han fet adormir el meu estimat. El desperto ara? – Ai, no! Haig d’escoltar com ell es plany, com fa tant de temps es deleix per mi, que li donen i prenen la vida les meves galtes morenes, i ell m’anomena la seva serp, i tanmateix dorm al meu costat. El desperto ara? – Ai, no!
