Weihnachtsgefühl
Language: German (Deutsch)
Naht die jubelvolle Zeit[,]
Kommt auch mir ein Sehnen;
Längst entflohner Seligkeit
Denk ich nach mit Tränen.
Und ich schaue, wie im Traum,
Ihren fernen Schimmer
Weben um den Weihnachtsbaum,
Kehrt sie selbst auch nimmer.

Esprit de Noël
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Le temps plein de joie approche,
Un désir ardent me vient aussi,
Un bonheur qui s'est envolé il y a longtemps,
J'y pense avec des larmes.
Et je vois comme dans un rêve
Son éclat lointain
S'agiter autour de l'arbre de Noël,
Sans jamais se retourner.
