Geächtet
Language: German (Deutsch)
Es flüstert im Bache,
Es lauscht die Nacht, --
Was dort, an der Weide,
Die Maid wohl macht?
Die Rinde umklammert
Die bleiche Hand,
Es strömen die Thränen
Ihr unverwandt.
Da klinget ein Grüßen
Vom Wasser her:
"O komm nur, Du fühlest
Dein Weh nicht mehr!
"Bei mir ist Vergessen,
Hier unten Ruh,
Ich sag es ja Keinem,
Ich deck Dich zu!"
Es flüstert im Bache,
Es weint die Nacht --
Was habt mit dem Mägdlein
Ihr beide gemacht?

Proscrite
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Il y a un murmure dans le ruisseau,
La nuit écoute, --
Là, près du saule,
Que peut faire la jeune fille ?
Serrant l'écorce,
De sa main pâle,
Ses larmes coulent
Continûment.
Un salut retentit
Venant de l'eau :
« Oh, viens seulement, Tu ne ressentiras
Plus ta douleur !
« En moi est l'oubli,
En bas est le repos,
Je ne le dirai à personne,
Je te recouvrirai ! »
Il y a un murmure dans le ruisseau,
La nuit pleure, --
Avec la jeune fille qu'avez-vous
Fait, vous deux ?
