Der Blumenkranz

Language: German (Deutsch) after the English

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG LIT

An Celia's Baum in stiller Nacht
Hängt Blumen, treuer Liebe Pfand!
Vielleicht, wenn neu der Morgen lacht,
Flicht euch zum Kranz der Liebsten Hand.

Und fällt auf ihres Busens Pracht
Ein Tröpfchen Tau aus eurem Schoß,
Dann sagt, es sei kein Tau der Nacht,
Nur Tränen, die ihr Freund vergoß.

Gėlių vainikas

Language: Lithuanian (Lietuvių kalba) after the German (Deutsch)

Ant selijos medžio tylioje naktyje
Kabo gėlės, ištikimos meilės užstatas.
Galbūt kai vėl nusišypsos rytas,
Supins jas į vainiką mylimosios rankos.

Ir nukris ant jos puikios krūtinės
Lašelis rasos nuo atžalos.
Tada pasakys, tai ne nakties rasa,
Tik ašaros, kurias išliejo jos draugas.
