Vöglein in den sonn'gen Tagen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Vöglein in den sonn'gen Tagen,
Lüfte blau, die mich verführen!
Könnt ich bunte Flügel rühren,
Über Berg und Wald sie schlagen.
Ach! es spricht des Frühlings Schöne,
Und die [Vögel]1 alle singen:
Sind [die Farben denn nicht]2 Töne,
Und die Töne bunte Schwingen?
Vöglein, ja, ich laß das Zagen!
Winde sanft die Segel rühren,
Und ich lasse mich entführen,
Ach! wohin? mag ich nicht fragen.

Petits oiseaux, des jours ensoleillés
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Petits oiseaux, des jours ensoleillés,
Dans l'azur du ciel, vous me tentez !
Je voudrais pouvoir agiter des ailes bariolées
Et les faire battre par-dessus monts et forêts.
Ah ! La beauté du printemps s'affirme,
Et tous les oiseaux chantent :
Les couleurs ne sont-elles donc pas des sons,
Et les sons des ailes multicolores ?
Petits oiseaux, oui, j'oublie mes hésitations !
Doucement les vents effleurent les voiles
Et je me laisse enlever,
Ah ! Vers où ? Je ne souhaite pas le demander.
