Da meine lippen reglos sind und brennen
Beacht ich erst wohin mein fuss geriet:
In andrer herren prächtiges gebiet.
Noch war vielleicht mir möglich mich zu trennen ·
Da schien es dass durch hohe gitterstäbe
Der blick vor dem ich ohne lass gekniet
Mich fragend suchte oder zeichen gäbe.

Puix que els meus llavis no es mouen i cremen
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Puix que els meus llavis no es mouen i cremen,
em dono compte, adés, on els meus peus han anat a raure,
en el magnífic domini d'altres senyors.
Potser encara m'hagués estat possible de deslliurar-me,
llavors semblà però que, traspassant alts reixats,
l'esguard, davant el qual jo, sense arrest, m'agenollava,
em sotgés o em fes signes.
