Abschied vom Walde
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE
Nun scheidet vom sterbenden Walde
Der Wandrer mit Herz und Mund:
»Wie wardst du mir lieb so balde,
Was sangst du mir vor allstund!
Wohl wußt' ich deine Sprache,
Wohl kannt' ich deinen Sang,
Und will's an manchem Tage
Nachsingen trüb und bang.
Doch nun, o Wald, dein Rauschen,
Dein Brausen laß mir sein!
Nicht alles mag ich tauschen
Für Herbstes Melodein!«

Adieu à la forêt
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Maintenant de la forêt mourante se sépare
Le voyageur avec son cœur et sa bouche :
« Comme je suis devenu vite amoureux de toi,
De ce que tu chantais pour moi à chaque heure !
Je comprenais ton langage,
J'entendais ton chant,
Et de nombreux jours encore je voudrais
Le répéter après toi, avec tristesse et anxiété.
Mais maintenant, ô forêt, que ton bruissement,
Ton grondement me quittent !
Je ne veux rien échanger
Contre les mélodies de l'automne ! »
