Our translations: CHI ENG FRE ITA NYN
Pierrot! Mein Lachen
Hab ich verlernt!
Das Bild des Glanzes
Zerfloß - Zerfloß!
Schwarz weht die Flagge
Mir nun vom Mast.
Pierrot! Mein Lachen
Hab ich verlernt!
O gieb mir wieder,
Roßarzt der Seele,
Schneemann der Lyrik,
Durchlaucht vom Monde,
Pierrot - mein Lachen!

Preghiera a Pierrot
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)
Pierrot! Il riso
io l'ho disimparato!
L'immagine della luce,
Svanita - Svanita!
Nera la bandiera sventola
ora, per me, dall'asta.
Pierrot! Il riso
io l'ho disimparato!
Concedimelo ancora,
maniscalco dell'anima,
fantoccio di neve della lirica,
principe della Luna,
Pierrot - Il riso!
