Return to the original list

1. Die Trostlosen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Georg Eduard Goltermann (1824 - 1898), "Die Trostlosen", op. 8 (Vier Duette) no. 1 [ duet for 2 voices and piano ]
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mein Liebchen, wir sassen beisammen,
Traulich im leichten Kahn.
Die Nacht war still, und wir schwammen
Auf weiter Wasserbahn.

Die Geisterinsel, die schöne,
Lag dämm'rig im Mondenglanz;
Dort klangen liebe Töne,
Dort wogte der Nebeltanz.

Dort klang es lieb und lieber,
Und wogt' es hin und her;
Wir aber schwammen vorüber,
Trostlos auf weitem Meer.

by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
1.
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Kultaseni, me istuimme yhdessä
lähekkäin pienessä veneessä;
yö oli vaiti, ja me kelluimme
aavalla ulapalla.

Kaunis Aavesaari
lepäsi haaveillen kuun loisteessa;
siellä kaikuivat suloiset sävelet,
siellä sumu aaltoili kuin tanssissa.

Musiikki kaikui yhä suloisempana,
ja aaltoili joka suuntaan;
mutta me ajelehdimme ohitse
toivottomina aavalla merellä.
