Wohl schön bewandt
War es vorehe
Mit meinem Leben,
Mit meiner Liebe;
Durch eine Wand,
Ja durch zehn Wände,
Erkannte mich
Des Freundes Sehe;
Doch jetzo, wehe,
Wenn ich dem Kalten
Auch noch so dicht
Vor'm Auge stehe,
Es merkt's sein Auge,
Sein Herze nicht.

Ben bé satisfeta
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Ben bé satisfeta
estava abans,
amb la meva vida,
amb el meu amor;
a través d'una paret,
sí, a través de deu parets,
em reconeixia
l'esguard del meu amic.
Però ara, ai de mi!
Quan em trobo a frec
dels seus ulls indiferents,
ni ells,
ni el seu cor,
em reconeixen.
