Sie trug ein Band in Haaren
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Sie trug ein Band in Haaren,
Das flatterte durch die Luft,
Am Busen barg sie Rosen,
Die spendeten würzigen Duft.

Vom Busen gib mir die Rosen,
Oder gib mir das Band im Haar,
Oder gib mir die Haare selber,
Oder gib mir den Busen gar!

Vom Bande flicht mir Fesseln,
Von Rosen den bräutlichen Kranz,
Ein Ringlein winde von Haaren,
Aber schenke dein Herz mir ganz!

À la belle
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Elle portait dans les cheveux un ruban
Qui flottait dans les airs,
Sa poitrine abritait des roses
Qui répandaient un parfum épicé.

Donne-moi les roses de ta poitrine,
Ou donne-moi le ruban de tes cheveux
Ou donne-moi tes cheveux eux-mêmes,
Ou donne-moi même ta poitrine !

Avec le ruban je tresserai un lien pour moi,
Avec les roses une couronne de mariage,
Je ferai un anneau de tes cheveux,
Mais offre-moi ton cœur en entier !
