Immer wieder
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): FRE
Ehe wir uns trennen konnten,
oh, wie hielt mich dein Gesicht,
sahen wir noch Einmal, dicht,
dicht an deinem mein Gesicht,
in den Winterwald zurück,
wo die Bäume sich noch sonnten,
wo die Abendwolken prangten,
wo ins feuergoldne Licht
die verworrnen Zweige langten,
und wir baten Gott um Glück.

Encore et toujours
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Avant que de pouvoir nous séparer,
ô, comme ton visage me retenait,
nous revîmes encore une fois, serré,
serré, mon visage contre le tien,
dans la forêt hivernale,
où les arbres prenaient encore le soleil,
où les nuages du soir resplendissaient,
où la lumière d'or et de feu
attrapait les rameaux échevelés
et où nous demandions le bonheur à Dieu.
