Original text and translations

English.png English text

You gentle nymphs that on the meadows play,
and oft relate the love of shepherds young;
Come, sit you down, for if you please to stay,
now you may hear an uncouth passion sung.

A youth there is, and I am that poor groom
that's fall'n in love, and cannot tell with whom.

German.png German translation

Ihr zarten Nymphen, die ihr spielt auf diesen Wiesen
und oft erzählt von junger Hirten Lieb -
kommt, setzt euch. So ihr zu bleiben wollt erkiesen,
dann sollt ihr hörn ein seltsam Liebeslied.

Ein Jüngling kommt drin vor, und dieser arme Kerl bin ich,
der sich verliebt, ich muss gestehn - so gar nicht weiß, in wen.
