Mi folyt ott a mezőn?
Language: Hungarian (Magyar)
Mi folyt ott a mezőn? Patakvíznek gyöngye - Hát szeretőm arcán? A búbánat könnye. Hadd folyjon a patak! Habjai mentében Piros rózsa fejlik A zöld mezőségen. De könnyed ne folyjon, Lelkem kisleánya! Elhervad a könnytől Orcáid rózsája.

Was fliesst auf der Wiese?
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Hungarian (Magyar)
Was fließt auf der Wiese? Bächleins Silberwellen - Was auf Liebchens Wangen? Schmerzenstränen quellen. Mag das Bächlein fließen! Blüht die rote Rose Doch auf seinen Wegen Drin im grünen Moose: Aber du, Geliebte, Mußt die Tränen scheuchen, Weil davon die Rosen Deiner Wangen bleichen.
