Ind i dit matgyldne solsilkehår

Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)

Our translations: FRE

Ind i dit matgyldne solsilkehår
fletter sig therosens blegrøde blade,
og om dine duedunhvide arme
snor sig broncebrunt, guldbræmmet løv.
Og al den sol, som mit øie har blændet,
hver glødende farve, som har mig beruset,
- sanseberuset -
eier dit smil. -

Den sarteste, vage musik den klinger i dine sange:
døgnfluevingers susen i natteblød luft,
jasmindufts rislen gjennem rosenblade
og stjerneskins sagte synken i blankbløde vande.

Sommer og ungdom er dit navn
du kvinde, jeg så i de deiligste drømme,
du kvinde, jeg elsker...
...Zerlina! -

Dans l'or mat de tes soyeux cheveux de soleil

Language: French (Français) after the Norwegian (Bokmål)

Dans l'or mat de tes soyeux cheveux de soleil
sont tressées des pétales de roses-thé rouge pâle,
et sur tes bras blancs comme duvet de colombe
s'enroule une feuille de bronze brun liserée d'or.
Et tout le soleil qui a aveuglé mes yeux,
chaque couleur dorée qui m' a enivré,
-- enivré mes sens --
vient de ton sourire.

La délicate, vague musique qui sonne dans tes chansons, c'est
le bruissement des ailes d'une éphémère dans l'air doux de la nuit,
l'écoulement du parfum du jasmin entre les pétales de roses
et la lente plongée de la lumière des étoiles dans le doux brillant des eaux.

Ton nom est été et jeunesse,
toi femme, que je vis dans le plus charmant des rêves,
toi femme, que j'aime ...
... Zerlina !
