Wo der Goldregen steht
Language: German (Deutsch)
Eh' wir weitergehen,
Laß uns stille stehen,
Hier ist alles ruhig, weit und klar.
Eine Blütendolde
Von dem gelben Golde
Dieses Strauches in dein braunes Haar!
Seine Zweige hängen
Schwer und voll und drängen
Über uns mit süßer Kraft herein.
Laß uns stehn und warten
Tief im fernsten Garten
Kann die Liebe nicht verborg'ner sein.
Eine alte Weise
Klingt verträumt und leise,
Und du siehst mich an und lächelst hold.
Quellen gehn und rinnen,
Ach, was jetzt beginnen?
Sieh, es regnet Glück und Sonnengold.

Where the laburnum stands
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
Before we walk onward
Let us stand still;
Here everything is quiet, expansive and clear.
[Let me tuck] a blossoming sprig
From the yellow gold
Of this bush into your brown hair!
Its branches hang
Heavy and full, and they crowd in
Above us with sweet verdure.
Let us stand and wait
Deep in the most distant garden
Love cannot be more concealed.
An old tune
Sounds dreamily and quietly,
And you look at me and smile beautifully.
Water-springs bubble and run,
Ah, what’s to begin now?
See, it is raining down happiness and sun-gold.
