Die brennenden Tulpen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Persian (Farsi)
Einst aus meinem Grabe
werden ungezählte rote Tulpen,
rote Tulpen flammen sprießen.
Staune nicht ob dieses Wunders,
sondern, Herliche, bedenke, bedenke,
welche ungeheure Gluten,
dir geweihte Liebesgluten,
in dem Lebenden einst brannten,
da der Tote noch so glüht.

Les tulipes ardents
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Un dia, a la meva tomba,
nombroses tulipes vermelles,
tulipes vermelles brostaran flames.
No et sorprenguis d’aquest prodigi,
ans, estimada, pensa, pensa,
quin immens ardor,
ardor d’amor a tu dedicat,
cremava en el que un temps era viu
i que encara crema ara que és mort.
