Was wehrst du dich und sträubst dich groß?
Ich halte dich fest umwunden
Und lasse dich nicht [eher]1 los,
Als bis ich dein Mäulchen gefunden.
In Fesseln meine Linke schlug
Die Händchen dir auf [dem]2 Rücken,
Mein Arm hat dabei Kraft genug,
Dich an die Brust zu drücken.
Die Rechte nun umspannt dein Kinn,
Du wirst's wohl dulden müssen.
So wahr ich Hunold Singuf bin,
Mädel, es kommt [zum]3 Küssen!
Siehst du, wie folgsam du dich schmiegst?!
Die Angst war zu betäuben!
Und wenn du nun einen Schnurrbart kriegst
So kommt das nur [vom]4 Sträuben.

Besada
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Per què et resisteixes i t’oposes tan tenaçment?
Et tinc fortament abraçada
i no et deixaré anar abans
que trobi la teva boqueta.
La meva mà esquerra manté
les teves mans aferrades a la teva esquena,
el meu braç té suficient força
per estrènyer-te al meu pit.
Ara la meva mà dreta abasta el teu mentó,
ho hauràs de suportar.
Tant cert com em dic Hunold Singuf,
noia, hi haurà besoteig!
Veus que dòcil t’arrimes?!
T’atordia la por!
I si tu ara reps un bigoti
serà perquè et resisteixes.
