Morgentau (Aus einem alten Liederbuche)
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT ENG FRE ITA
Der Frühhauch hat gefächelt
Hinweg die schwüle Nacht,
Die Flur holdselig lächelt
In ihrer Lenzespracht;
Mild singt vom dunkeln Baume
Ein Vöglein in der Früh,
Es singt noch halb in Traume
Gar süße Melodie.
Die Rosenknospe hebet
Empor ihr Köpfchen bang,
Denn wundersam durchbebet
Hat sie der süße Sang;
Und mehr und mehr enthüllet
Sich ihrer Blätter Füll',
Und eine Träne quillet
Hervor so heimlich still.

Rosée du matin
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
La brise du matin a soufflé
Au loin la nuit sensuelle,
La prairie sourit de manière charmante
Dans sa gloire printanière ;
De doux chants depuis l'arbre sombre
Viennent d'un petit oiseau tôt le matin,
Il chante encore à moitié dans le rêve
Une mélodie si douce.
Le bouton de rose lève
Timidement sa petite tête,
Car merveilleusement il a été agité
Par le doux chant ;
Et de plus en plus se déploie
La plénitude de ses pétales,
Et une larme jaillit
Si secrètement et silencieusement.
