Ist auf deines Herzens Herd

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: FRE

Ist auf deines Herzens Herd
Alles Feuer [ausgegangen?]¹
Daß auf deinen bleichen Wangen
Noch der Schnee liegt [unversehrt.]²

Komm! mir ist so frühlingswarm,
Komm' zu mir, du Halberfrorne,
Zünd' das Feuer, das verlor'ne,
Wieder an in meinem Arm!

Horch! schon fängt dein Herz ganz still,
Aber schneller an zu klopfen,
Und die süssen Augen tropfen
Wie die Tannen im April.

Und neugierig schauen zwei
Junge Röslein von den Wangen,
Ob der Schnee schon weggegangen
Und der Lenz gekommen sei?

Dans l'âtre de ton cœur

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

Dans l'âtre de ton cœur,
Toutes les flammes se sont-elles éteintes
Pour que sur tes joues blêmes
La neige reste encore accrochée?

Viens, je sens en moi la chaleur du printemps,
Viens vers moi, toi qui es à-demi gelée,
Dans mes bras
Rallume ce feu perdu.

Écoute, déjà ton cœur si coi
Commence à battre plus vite,
Et tes doux yeux coulent
Comme les sapins en avril.

Et curieusement deux jeunes roses
Apparaissent sur tes joues,
La neige serait-elle déjà partie
Et le printemps déjà arrivé?
