I'm not the creator, but I'm pretty sure I can answer that.

I don't exactly know what you mean by the "first one" but I assume you mean the real story. In the real story, the Little Mermaid lives with her six sisters, father, and grandmother in the sea. Each of her sisters had gone up on land on their 15th birthday. When it's the Little Mermaid's turn, she goes to the surface and watches a ship, which has a prince on it. She decides that she's in love with the prince, and rescues him when the ship starts sinking. The mermaid leaves him on the beach and returns home, but she still wants to see the prince and goes to the sea witch. The witch gives her legs in exchange for her tounge ( gruesome, yes) so she cannot speak to anyone. Then she tells her that if the prince does not fall in love with her and marries another woman, she will die and become sea foam. So she goes onto land, the prince finds her, she's convinced that he's going to marry her, but he meets a princess who he eventually marries. On the day after the wedding, just before the sun rises, her sisters come to the surface with their hair cut off, saying that they exchanged it for a knife. If the little mermaid kills the prince she will become a mermaid again and be able to live. She is about to kill him, but still loves him and refuses. As the sun rises, she throws herself into the ocean and becomes seafoam, but instead of just dissapearing she gains a soul and becomes a daughter of the air.

That pretty much sums it up. So, uh, no she doesn't exactly lose her voice.
