Wer rief dich denn? Wer hat dich herbestellt?
Wer hieß dich kommen, wenn es dir zur Last?
Geh zu dem Liebchen, das dir mehr gefällt,
Geh dahin, wo du die Gedanken hast.
Geh nur, wohin dein Sinnen steht und Denken!
Daß du zu mir kommst, will ich gern dir schenken.
Geh zu dem Liebchen, das dir mehr gefällt!
Wer rief dich denn? Wer hat dich herbestellt?

Qui t'a appelé, alors ? Qui t'a envoyé ?
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Qui t'a appelé, alors ? Qui t'a envoyé ?
Qui t'a dit de venir, si c'est un tel poids pour toi ?
Va vers la bien-aimée qui te plaît plus,
Va là-bas, où sont tes pensées.
Va où sont ton esprit et ta pensée !
Je t'excuserai volontiers de venir vers moi.
Va vers la bien-aimée qui te plaît plus !
Qui t'a appelé, alors ? Qui t'a fait venir ?
