Le trésor du verger et le jardin en fête, Les fleurs des champs, des bois, Éclatent de plaisir, hélas ! et sur leur tête Le vent enfle sa voix. Mais toi, noble Océan, que l’assaut des tourmentes Ne saurait ravager, Certes, plus dignement, lorsque tu te lamentes, Tu te prends à songer.

Welche Pracht, die Obstbäume und der Garten feiern ihre schönste Zeit, Die Blumen auf dem Felde, die Wälder, jauchzen vor Freude, Wehe! Wehe! Lässt doch der Wind über ihren Häuptern schon seine Stimme anschwellen. Aber du erlauchter Ozean, den der Ansturm der Stürme Kaum berühren wird. Ganz Würde, selbst in der Klage, Hingegeben deinen Gedanken.
