Flyver en bange Fugl af Lund
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  FRE
Flyver en bange Fugl af Lund,
tusinde blev i Lunden.
Kysser du ej min røde Mund,
En anden rækker jeg Munden.

Mirje, marje det er Vaar,
jeg har Roser i mit Haar, 
Roser har jeg funden! 

Kryber en Stoder krum med Stok, 
danser jeg glad paa Bene. 
Verden har raske Svende nok,
jeg danser aldrig alene.

Mirje, marje Sang og Dans, 
Mandemod og Jomftrukrans, 
røde Rosengrene!

Flieht auch ein Vöglein bang den Hain
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
Flieht auch ein Vöglein bang den Hain,
Tausend vom Hain nicht weichen.
Küssest nicht du mir den rothen Mund,
'Nem andern werd ich ihn reichen.

Mirje, marje, Mai ist da,
Rosen hab im Haar ich ja,
Rosen ohne Gleichen!

Kriecht auch krumm am Stocke wer,
Tanze ich ohn' zu schwanken.
Flotter Gesellen giebts ein Heer,
Ich tanz' mit allen den schlanken.

Mirje, marje, Sang und Tanz,
Mannesmuth und Jungfernkranz,
Rothe Rosenranken!

From the Sinding score.
