Zwischen Weizen und Korn
Language: German (Deutsch)
Zwischen Weizen und Korn, Zwischen Hecken und Dorn, Zwischen Bäumen und Gras, Wo [gehts]1 Liebchen? Sag mir das. Fand mein Holdchen Nicht daheim; Muß das Goldchen Draußen sein. Grünt und blühet Schön der Mai; Liebchen ziehet Froh und frei. An dem Felsen beim Fluß, Wo sie reichte den Kuß, Jenen ersten im Gras, Seh' ich etwas! Ist sie das? --2

Entre el blat i el panís
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Entre el blat i el panís,
entre els barders i les espines,
entre els arbres i l’herbam,
on ha anat la meva estimada?
Digues-m’ho.
La meva encisadora
no l’he trobat a casa;
el meu tresor
deu ser a fora.
Verdeja i floreix
formós el mes de maig;
la meva estimada deu passejar
lliure i joiosa.
Al rocam, prop del riu,
on ella em feu aquell bes,
el primer damunt l’herba,
hi veig alguna cosa!
És ella?
