Mit dem grünen Lautenbande
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FIN FRE GRE ITA KOR POR
»Schad' um das schöne grüne Band,
Daß es verbleicht hier an der Wand,
Ich hab' das Grün so gern!«
So sprachst du, Liebchen, heut zu mir;
Gleich knüpf' ich's ab und send' es dir:
Nun hab' das Grüne gern!

Ist auch dein ganzer Liebster weiß,
Soll Grün doch haben seinen Preis,
Und ich auch hab' es gern.
Weil unsre Lieb' ist [immergrün]1,
Weil grün der Hoffnung Fernen blühn,
Drum haben wir es gern.

Nun [schlingst du]2 in die Locken dein
Das grüne Band gefällig ein,
Du hast ja's Grün so gern.
Dann weiß ich, wo die Hoffnung [wohnt]3,
Dann weiß ich, wo die Liebe thront,
Dann hab' ich's Grün erst gern.

Amb la cinta verda del llaüt
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch) 
"És una llàstima que la bonica cinta verda,
perdi el color aquí a la paret,
m'agrada tant el verd!"
Això és el que em digueres avui, estimada;
ara mateix la deslligo i te l'envio:
així gaudeix del color verd!

Encara que el teu estimat és tot blanc,
el verd deu tenir però el seu valor,
i a mi també m'agrada.
Perquè el nostre amor és sempre verd,
perquè verdes floreixen les esperances llunyanes,
per això ens agrada tant.

Ara lliga els teus rínxols
graciosament amb la cinta verda,
t'agrada tant el color verd.
Aleshores sé on viu l'esperança,
aleshores sé on regna l'amor,
aleshores m'agradarà encara més el verd.
