Gebet
Language: German (Deutsch)
Rose:
Dank, Herr, dir dort im Sternenland,
Du führtest mich an Vaterhand,
Und in der Leiden Becher fiel
Ein Himmelstropfen, süss und kühl;
Nun wolle Ruh der Müden schenken
Dass ich gestärkt dem jungen Tag,
Was er auch bring', entgegen blicken mag!
(Im Einschlummern).
Ob sie wohl mein gedenken?
Chor der Elfen:
Schwesterlein!
Hörst du nicht beim Sternenschein
Unser Lied.
Hörst du nicht die Glöckchen fein,
Rosenblut?
Hörst du nicht beim Sternenschein
Das Elfenlied?
Lass dich nicht berücken,
Kehr' zu uns zurück,
Hoffe nicht auf Glück!
Nur bei uns,
Im Reich der Elfen,
Wohnt die Lust,
Aber Schmerz und Leiden
in der Menschenbrust.
Schwesterlein!
Klingt in deinen Traum hinein
Nicht unser Gruss?
Fühlst du nicht im Mondenschein
Unsern Kuss?
Lass dich nicht berücken,
Keh'r zu uns zurück!
Hoffe nicht auf Glück!
Wähnst du, dass auf Erden
Wohne dauernd Glück?
In der Schmerzensträne
Stirbt der Freude Blick.
Röslein, komm zurück,
Hoffe nicht auf Glück,
Komm' zurück!

Preghiera
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)
Rosa:
Grazie, Signore; dall'alto dei cieli
Mi hai guidato verso mani paterne,
e nella coppa del dolore
hai versato una dolce e fresca goccia celeste.
Concedi il riposo alla mia stanchezza,
così che, con forza rinnovata, io possa affrontare
il giorno che viene e quello che porterà.
(Addormentandosi)
Chissà se mi stanno pensando.
Coro degli Elfi:
Sorellina,
non senti, sotto un chiarore di stelle,
la nostra canzone?
Non senti le campanelline,
bocciolo di rosa?
Non senti, sotto un chiarore di stelle,
il canto degli Elfi?
Non ti lasciare ingannare,
ritorna da noi,
non sperare nella felicità!
Soltanto con noi,
nel regno degli Elfi,
la gioia ha dimora,
Dolore e pena
Stanno nel cuore umano.
Sorellina!
Non risuona nel tuo sogno
Il nostro saluto?
Non senti sotto il chiaro di luna
Il nostro bacio?
Non ti lasciare ingannare,
ritorna da noi,
non sperare nella felicità!
Credi davvero che sulla terra
Abiti una felicità duratura?
In lacrime di dolore
Muore ogni istante di gioia.
Rosellina, torna indietro,
non sperare nella felicità,
torna indietro!
