A les je tichý kolem kol
Language: Czech (Čeština)  after the Czech (Čeština)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE GER ITA
A les je tichý kolem kol,
jen srdce mír ten ruší,
a černý kouř, jenž spěchá v dol,
mé slze v lících, mé slze suší.
Však nemusí jich usušit,
necht' v jiné tváře bije.
Kdo v smutku může zazpívat,
ten nezhynul, ten žije, ten žije!

Der Wald ist schweigsam um herum
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Czech (Čeština)
Der Wald ist schweigsam um herum,
Nur das Herz bricht diesen Frieden,
der schwarze Rauch sinkt tiefer stets,
die Träne trocknend meiner Wange.
Doch nicht meine Träne soll er trocknen,
sollst anders wohin wehen!
Wer auch in der Trauer noch singen kann,
der stirbt nicht - er lebt, er lebt!
