Hallo, nun brennt mir wieder Die Sonne auf den Hut, Und jüngt mir alle Glieder Und heizt mein träges Blut. Ihr Burschen und ihr Frauen Im Land Italia, Ich werde euch wiederschauen, Ich bin euch selig nah. Ihr Bursche, nun will ich zechen Mit euch den schwarzen Wein Und wieder bei Singen und Stechen Euch Kamerade sein. Ihr Frauen von Rom und Venedig, Nun fallet mir um den Hals, Ich bin noch so jung und ledig Und lustig wie ehemals!

Language: German (Deutsch)
Fast eine deutsche Stadt, so eng gebaut, Gassen und Giebel dämmerig vertraut. Hier möcht ich Stunden, Tage, Wochen viel Verträumen und verschlendern ohne Ziel. Hier möcht ich sorgenlos an schöner Brust Vertändeln einer leichten Liebe Lust. Hier möcht ich bleiben - wäre drüben nicht Ostwärts die freie Luft so seltsam licht. Dort weiß ich warten zauberhaft und hell Mein Ziel - Venedig! Und ich reise schnell.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Du lautlos dunkler Kanal, Verlassene Bucht, Uralter Häuser graue Flucht, Gotische Fenster und maurisch verziertes Portal! Von tiefem Traum besiegt, Vom Tode eingewiegt Schläft hier die Zeit Und alles Leben scheint so weit, so weit! Hier will ich ganz allein Durch alte Gassen gehn, Bei Fackelschein An Gondeltreppen stehn, In blinde Fenster sehn Bang-glücklich wie ein Kind im Dunkeln sein.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Ein Wändeviereck, blaß, vergilbt und alt, Ehmals von Pordenones Hand bemalt. Die Bilder fraß die Zeit. Du siehest nur Mit schwachem Umriss hier und dort die Spur Verwaschener Fresken noch: ein Arm, ein Fuß -- Vergangener Schönheit geisterhafter Gruß. Ein Kind mit Augen auf, die lustig lachen Und den Beschauer seltsam traurig machen.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Bläue über dir und Sonnenglut, Unter dir die ewig stille Flut, Auf dem schlanken, leichtbewegten Kiel Trägst du Saitenklang und Liebesspiel. Schwarz und ernst sind deine leichten Wände. Süß, solang das frohe Heute loht, Süß und seltsam ist der Traum vom Tod, Von der Jugend und der Liebe Ende. Meine jungen Jahre gleiten Unbekannten Zielen zu Durch beglänzte schöne Weiten, Schlanke Gondel, rasch und leicht wie du.
