Am Sonntag Morgen, zierlich angethan

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

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Am Sonntag Morgen, zierlich angethan,
Wohl weiß ich, wo du da bist hingegangen,
Und manche Leute waren, die dich sahn,
Und kamen dann zu mir, dich zu verklagen.
Als sie mir's sagten, hab' ich laut gelacht
Und in der Kammer dann geweint [zu]¹ Nacht.
Als sie mir's sagten, fing ich an zu singen,
Um einsam dann die Hände wund zu ringen.

Diumenge al matí

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

El diumenge al matí, vestida elegantment,
sé molt bé on vas anar,
i hi ha molta gent que et van veure,
i després vingueren a mi per acusar-te.
Quan m’ho digueren, em vaig posar a riure
i després, a la cambra, vaig plorar tota la nit.
Quan m’ho digueren, em vaig posar a cantar,
i després em vaig retorçar les mans fins fer-me mal.
