Müder Glanz der Sonne!

Müder Glanz der Sonne!
Blasses Himmelblau!
Von verklungner Wonne
Träumet still die Au.

An der letzten Rose
Löset lebenssatt
Sich das letzte lose,
Bleiche Blumenblatt.

Goldenes Entfärben
Schleicht sich durch den Hain;
Auch Vergehn'n und Sterben
Däucht mir süß zu sein.

Lueur lasse du soleil !

Lueur lasse du soleil !
Bleu pâle du ciel !
De la joie qui s'est évanouie
La prairie rêve en silence.

De la dernière rose
Repu de vie se détache
Le dernier pétale,
Libre et pâle.

Une décoloration dorée
Se faufile dans le bosquet ;
Disparaître et mourir
Me semblent aussi être doux.
