Schneefall
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CHI FRE
So still zu liegen und an dich zu denken,
indessen Legionen weißer Blumen
mein dunkles Ich in ihren Schnee versenken!
Warum nicht also sterben! einst, wenn alles
beschlossen lieget in uns, um uns her,
das Haupt im Schoß des weißen Wolkenfalles.

Chute de neige
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Il est si paisible d'être étendu et de penser à toi,
tandis que des légions de fleurs blanches
recouvrent de leur neige mon sombre moi !
Pourquoi ne pas aussi mourir quand un jour tout
ce qui est décrété est là, en nous, autour de nous,
avec la tête au milieu de la chute des blancs flocons.
