Verstoßen! Verschlossen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die Peri
Verstoßen! Verschlossen
Aufs neu das Goldportal!
Gerichtet! Vernichtet,
Der Hoffnung letzter Strahl!
So soll ich's nimmer finden,
Das edle, köstliche Gut,
Weh mir, ich fühl' ihn schwinden,
Den hohen Mut;
Doch will ich nicht ruhn, will ohne Rast
Von einem Pol zum andern schreiten,
Durchpilgern will ich alle Weiten
Bis ich das Gut, bis ich's erfaßt,
Das mir das höchste Glück verheißt,
Das, Eden, mir dein Tor erschleußt.
Und wär's bewacht in Grau'n und Nacht,
Tief in der Erde tiefsten Gründen,
Ich will, ich muß das Kleinod finden!

Chassée ! Fermée
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
La Péri
Chassée ! Fermée
À nouveau la porte d'or !
Condamné ! Détruit
Le dernier rayon de l'espoir !
Ainsi je ne trouverai jamais
Le don noble et précieux,
Malheur à moi, je vous sens disparaître,
Humeurs élevées ;
Pourtant je ne me reposerai pas, je veux sans repos
Aller d'un pôle à l'autre,
Je veux aller en pèlerinage vers toutes les contrées éloignées
Jusqu'à ce que je saisisse le bien
Qui me promettra le bonheur suprême,
Que ta porte, Éden, s'ouvre à moi.
Et même s'il était gardé dans l'horreur et la nuit,
Profondément dans les creux les plus profonds de la terre,
Je veux, je dois trouver le joyau !
