Und du kamest in mein Haus

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Und du kamest in mein Haus,
kamst mit deinen schwarzen Blicken;
sah ich ferne Palmen nicken
und du gabst mir deinen Strauß.

Gabst die zitternden Narzissen,
die wir in der Wildnis pflückten;
deine schwarzen Locken schmückten
meines Diwans rote Kissen.

Kehre wieder in mein Haus,
laß die wilden Blumen blühen!
Unsre junge Lippen glühen,
gieb mir, gieb mir deinen Strauß!

Et tu vins dans ma maison

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

Et tu vins dans ma maison,
vins avec ton regard noir ;
je vis de lointaines palmes se courber
et tu me donnas ton bouquet.

Tu donnas le narcisse tremblant,
que nous avions cueilli dans l'ivresse.
Tes boucles noires ornaient
les rouges coussins de mon divan.

Reviens dans ma maison
fais fleurir les fleurs sauvages,
briller nos jeunes lèvres,
Donne-moi, donne-moi ton bouquet !
