Die Linde blühte, die Nachtigall sang
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die Linde blühte, die Nachtigall sang,
Die Sonne lachte mit freundlicher Lust;
Da küßtest du mich, und dein Arm mich umschlang,
Da preßtest du mich an die schwellende Brust.
Die Blätter fielen, der Rabe schrie hohl,
Die Sonne grüßte verdrossenen Blicks;
Da sagten wir frostig einander: "Lebwohl!"
Da knickstest du höflich den höflichsten Knicks.

Le tilleul était en fleur, le rossignol...
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Le tilleul était en fleur, le rossignol chantait,
Le soleil amical riait de plaisir ;
Soudain tu m'embrassas et ton bras m'enlaça
Et tu me pressas sur ta poitrine exaltée.
Les feuilles tombaient, le corbeau croassait,
Le soleil jetait des regards moroses ;
Alors nous nous dîmes un glacial « adieu ! »
Et tu fis une révérence polie, la plus polie des révérences.
