Mein Herzlein tut mir gar zu weh!

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT FRE

Mein Herzlein tut mir gar zu weh!
Das macht, weil ich in Trauren steh'.
Mein Herzlein tut mir weh,
gleich wenn ich dich anseh',
ach soll' ich dich verlassen,
das tu' ich nimmermeh'.

Mein Herzlein tut mir gar zu weh!
Das macht, weil ich in Sorgen geh'.
Wenn ich im Garten steh',
meine süße Blum' nicht seh',
um eine weiße Lilie
tut mir mein Herz so weh.

Mon cœur me fait trop mal !

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Mon cœur me fait trop mal !
C'est parce que je suis triste .
Mon cœur me fait mal,
Juste au moment où je te regarde,
Hélas, je devrais te quitter,
Cela je ne le ferai jamais.

Mon cœur me fait trop mal !
C'est parce que je m'inquiète.
Lorsque je suis au jardin,
Je ne vois pas ma douce fleur ;
Pour un lis blanc,
Mon cœur me fait si mal.
