Nächtens
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE
Nächtens wachen auf die irren,
Lügenmächt'gen Spukgestalten,
Welche deinen Sinn verwirren.
Nächtens ist im Blumengarten
Reif gefallen, daß vergebens
Du der Blumen würdest warten.
Nächtens haben Gram und Sorgen
In dein Herz sich eingenistet,
Und auf Tränen blickt der Morgen.

La nuit
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
La nuit s'éveillent ces fantômes
Errants et illusoires
Qui troublent ton esprit.
La nuit dans le jardin de fleurs
Du givre est tombé, c'est en vain
Que tu attendrais que les fleurs fleurissent.
La nuit le chagrin et l'inquiétude
Dans ton cœur se sont nichés,
Et le matin brille sur tes larmes.
