Der Schelm

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT

Veilchen wollt' ich pflücken,
Rosen hab' ich blühen sehn;
Blühten nicht auf Erdengrund,
Sondern auf Herzliebchens Mund.

Und sie hat es still erlaubt,
Das ein Küßchen ich geraubt.
Selig hab ich mich gebückt
Und die Rosen all gepflückt.

El pillet

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

Volia collir violetes,
però he vist florir les roses;
no han florit a la terra
sinó a la boca de l’estimada.

I ella m’ha permès en silenci
que li robés un petó.
Feliç m’he ajupit
i he collit totes les roses.
