Schlaf nun und ruhe in Träumen voll Duft
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die Peri und Chor
Schlaf nun und ruhe in Träumen voll Duft,
Balsam'scher umweh dich die Luft,
Als dem magischen Brand der Phönix entsteigt,
Wenn er sein eigenes Grablied singt.
Schlaf nun und ruh in Träumen voll Lust,
Du, die treueste, liebendste Brust!
Sie sprach's, und Himmelshauch durchfließt
Von ihren Lippen diese Stelle,
Sie schwingt den Strahlenkranz und gießt
Auf beider Antlitz solche Helle,
Daß wie ein Heil'genpaar sie lagen.
Indes die Peri wacht und Licht
Mild strahlt in ihre Todesnacht,
Bis ihre Seelen auferwacht.

Dors maintenant et repose dans des rêves plein de parfums
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
La Péri et Chœur
Dors maintenant et repose dans des rêves plein de parfums,
Que l'air plus balsamique t'entoure,
Comme le Phénix s'élève du feu magique
Quand il chante son propre chant de mort.
Dors maintenant et repose dans des rêves plein de joie,
Toi, la plus fidèle, le sein le plus aimant !
Elle a parlé et le souffle du ciel traverse
De ses lèvres cet endroit,
Elle agite l'auréole et verse
Sur leurs deux visages une lumière telle
Qu'ils apparaissent comme un couple de saints.
Pendant ce temps la Péri veillait et une lumière
Douce resplendit dans leur nuit de mort,
Jusqu'à ce que leurs âmes s'éveillent.
