Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Weint nicht, ihr Äuglein!
Wie kann so trübe 
weinen vor Eifersucht,
wer tödtet durch Liebe?

Wer selbst Tod bringt,
der sollt' ihn ersehnen?
Sein Lächeln bezwingt
was trotzt seinen Tränen.

Weint nicht, ihr Äuglein!
Wie kann so trübe 
weinen vor Eifersucht,
wer tödtet durch Liebe?

No ploreu, petits ulls

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

No ploreu, petits ulls!
Com pot tan tristament
plorar de gelosia
qui ha matat per amor?

Qui ell mateix ha portat la mort,
l’ha d’esperar amb delit?
El seu somriure sotmet
el que les seves llàgrimes repten.

No ploreu, petits ulls!
Com pot tan tristament
plorar de gelosia
qui ha matat per amor?
