Hochzeitlich Lied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Laß Akaziendüfte schaukeln,
Rosen durch die Fenster gaukeln,
Blütenfee, das bist nun du!
Deine buchenroten Locken
läuten mir wie Märchenglocken,
und die weiten Täler locken. . .
Komm, mein Kind, wir gehn zur Ruh!

In das Land der blassen Farben
ziehn wir ein, und Purpurgarben
fächeln stille Flammen zu.
Horch, schon zittern weiche Lieder,
Mond enthüllt sein Schneegefieder,
fieberheiß die reifen Glieder,
ziehn wir, Hand in Hand, zur Ruh.

Leise Scham, so schüchtern gleitend,
lichte Rosenflügel spreitend,
deckt die Äuglein, deckt dich zu.
Klingt's im Park von Zymbeln, Zinken,
will durchs Fenster Venus winken,
müssen Band und Seide sinken,
komm, mein Kind, wir ziehn zur Ruh.

Chant de noces
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Que la senteur des acacias se balance,
Que les roses voltigent à travers la fenêtre,
Tu es maintenant la reine des fleurs !
Tes boucles rouges comme des hêtres
Sonne pour moi comme des cloches de contes,
Et la large vallée attire...
Viens, mon enfant, nous allons nous mettre au lit !

Dans le pays des couleurs pâles
Nous irons, et des feuillages pourpres
Attiseront des flammes muettes.
Écoute, déjà des chants tendres frémissent,
La lune déploie ses ailes neigeuses,
Fiévreusement , les membres gelés,
Nous irons main dans la main nous mettre au lit.

Une légère pudeur, brillant si timidement,
Étendant doucement ses ailes roses,
Recouvre tes yeux et te recouvre.
Le parc résonne de cymbales et de cors,
Vénus fait signe à travers la fenêtre,
Nous devons laisser tomber les rubans et les soieries.
Viens, mon enfant, nous allons nous mettre au lit !
