Ich will meine Seele tauchen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ich will meine Seele tauchen In den Kelch der Lilie hinein; Die Lilie soll [klingend]1 hauchen Ein Lied von der Liebsten mein. Das Lied soll [schauern]2 und beben Wie der Kuß von ihrem Mund, Den sie mir einst gegeben In wunderbar süßer Stund'.

Ik dompel dit liefdesliedje
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)
Ik dompel dit liefdesliedje In een bad dat vol is gegooid Met witte vergeetmijnietjes Tot lied dat haar hart ontdooit Als ik dan zing zal het klinken Als de kus die zij me gaf Of zou mijn lied verdrinken In huilbuien achteraf?
