Mutter, Mutter! glaube nicht

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Mutter, Mutter! glaube nicht,
Weil ich ihn lieb' also sehr,
Daß nun Liebe mir gebricht,
Dich zu lieben wie vorher.

Mutter, Mutter! seit ich ihn
Liebe, lieb' ich erst dich sehr.
Laß mich an mein Herz dich zieh'n
Und dich küssen, wie mich er.

Mutter, Mutter! seit ich ihn
Liebe, lieb' ich erst dich ganz,
Daß du mir das Sein verlieh'n,
Das mir ward zu solchem Glanz.

Cançó de la promesa

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Mare, mare, no creguis que
Perquè jo l'estimo tant
Que ara l'amor (cap a ell) no em permet
estimar-te, com abans.

Mare, mare, des que l'estimo
t'estimo ara més. 
Deixa'm apretar-te amb el meu cor
I besar-te, com ell em besa!

Mare, mare!  Des que l'estimo
Per primer cop t'estimo completament
que tu m'has donat l'existència
que ha esdevingut tan radiant.
