Stärker als der Tod

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT

Nimm meinen schweren Dornenkranz
Aus meinem weißen Haar,
Den Kranz der dunklen Schmerzgedanken,
Laß' um mein müdes Haupt Weinlaub der Freude ranken.

Es soll das Rebenblatt mich lehren durch seine Pracht
und durch sein Rot,
Daß Liebe eine große Macht
Und stärker noch als selbst der Tod.

Més fort que la mort

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Treu la meva feixuga corona d'espines
del meus cabells blancs,
la corona dels meus obscurs pensaments dolorosos,
deixa que s'enfilin alegres fulles de parra al voltant
del meu cap cansat.

La fulla de cep m'ha d'ensenyar, per la seva esplendor,
per el seu color vermell,
que l'amor és un gran poder,
fins i tot, més fort que la mort.
