Im Frühlingsschatten fand ich Sie
Language: German (Deutsch)
Im [Frühlingsschatten]1 fand ich Sie;
Da band ich Sie mit Rosenbändern:
Sie fühlt' es nicht und schlummerte.
Ich sah Sie an; mein Leben hing
Mit diesem Blick' an ihrem Leben:
Ich fühlt' es wohl, und wußt' es nicht.
Doch lispelt' ich Ihr [sprachlos]2 zu,
Und rauschte mit den Rosenbändern:
Da wachte Sie vom Schlummer auf.
Sie sah mich an; Ihr Leben hing
Mit diesem Blick' an meinem Leben,
Und um uns [ward's]3 Elysium.

In spring shade I found her
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
In spring shade I found her,
and bound her with rosy ribbons:
she did not feel it, and slumbered on.
I looked at her; my life hung
with that gaze on her life:
I felt it well, but knew it not.
But I whispered wordlesly to her
and rustled the rosy ribbons.
Then she awoke from her slumber.
She looked at me; her life hung
with this gaze on my life:
and around us it became Elysium.
