Angels, in the early morning
Language: English
Available translation(s): FRE GER
Angels, in the early morning
May be seen the Dews among,
Stooping — plucking — smiling — flying —
Do the Buds to them belong?
Angels, when the sun is hottest
May be seen the sands among,
Stooping — plucking — sighing — flying —
Parched the flowers they bear along.

Des Anges, tôt le matin
Language: French (Français)  after the English
Des Anges, tôt le matin
Peuvent être vus parmi les Rosées,
Se baissant -- cueillant -- souriant -- volant --
Les Boutons des fleurs leur appartiennent-ils ?
Des Anges, quand le soleil est le plus chaud,
Peuvent être vus parmi les sables,
Se baisant -- cueillant -- soupirant -- volant --
Desséchées sont les fleurs qu'ils emportent.
