Gefunden

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Nun wir uns lieben, rauscht mein stolzes Glück
Hoch ob der Welt,
Was kann uns treffen, wenn uns das Geschick
Beisammen hält?
Und wenn hinab in seine Nacht das Meer
Die Erde reißt,
Die Liebe schwebt über den Sternen her
Als Schöpfergeist.

Trouvé

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Nous nous aimons maintenant, mon fier bonheur
Plane haut au-dessus du monde,
Que peut-il nous arriver quand le destin
Nous tient réunis ?
Et quand en bas dans sa nuit la mer
Déchire la terre,
L'amour plane au-dessus des étoiles
Comme l'esprit de la création.
