The factory gleamed in the twilight,
The train runs very fast,
The windows are brightly lit.
Two young people under the hawthorn tree are expecting me.
When the loud whistle just stopped,
I walked along the path to the tree.
The breeze kept blowing,
Under the dense hawthorn tree,
Blowing the hair of young spinners and blacksmiths.
How close we are when we meet in the studio during the day,
But when we meet at night, we are silent.
The stars look at us on a summer night,
But I don't understand. Tell me which one of them is cute.
In autumn, the singing of geese has disappeared in the distance.
The earth is covered with frost.
But on this rugged mountain road
The three of us are still wandering under the tree.
Which of them is more to my liking?
I can't see the difference. I've been fidgeting all day.
They are brave and lovely. That makes no difference.
Dear hawthorn tree, I ask you a favor!
Ah, the dense hawthorn tree,
White flowers are full of trees;
Ah, hawthorn tree, hawthorn tree,
Why are you sad?
Oh, which one is the bravest and cutest?
Oh, hawthorn tree, hawthorn tree, please tell me. (Version 1) End
At dusk, the song rippled gently on the water.
The factory gleamed in the distance in the twilight.
The train runs very fast,
The windows are brightly lit.
Two young men are waiting for me on both sides of the hawthorn tree.
Oh, the dense hawthorn tree is full of white flowers.
Oh, why are you worried about your lovely hawthorn tree?
When the loud whistle just stopped,
I walked along the path to the tree.
The breeze kept blowing,
Under the dense hawthorn tree,
Blowing the hair of young assemblers and forgers.
Oh, the dense hawthorn tree is full of white flowers.
Oh, why are you worried about your lovely hawthorn tree?
Which of them is more in line with my wishes?
I can't tell you. I've been fidgeting all day.
They are braver and cuter. That makes no difference.
Dear hawthorn tree, I need your help!
Oh, the bravest and cutest. Which one is it?
Oh, my dear hawthorn, please tell me.
Ah, the bravest and cutest. Which one is it?
Oh, my dear hawthorn, please tell me (version 2) is over.
