Im Walde wandl' ich und weine
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): FRE
Im Walde wandl' ich und weine, die Drossel sitzt in der Höh; sie springt und singt gar feine: Warum ist dir so weh? "Die Schwalben, deine Schwestern, die könnens dir sagen, mein Kind; sie wohnten in klugen Nestern, wo Liebchens Fenster sind."

Je me promène et pleure dans la forêt
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Je me promène et pleure dans la forêt, La grive est perchée dans les hauteurs ; Elle sautille et chante tout doucement : Pourquoi as-tu aussi mal ? « Les hirondelles, tes sœurs Peuvent te le dire mon enfant ; Elles habitaient des nids malins, Là où sont les fenêtres de ma bien-aimée. »
