French (Français) translations of Zwei Lieder, opus 3

by Max Kretschmar

1. Auf dem Meere  [sung text not yet checked]
by Max Kretschmar , "Auf dem Meere", op. 3 (Zwei Lieder) no. 1, published 1887 [ voice and piano ], Delitzsch, Pabst
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es träumte mir von einer weiten Heide,
[Weit]1 überdeckt von stillem, weißem Schnee,
Und unterm weißen Schnee lag ich begraben
Und schlief den einsam kalten Todesschlaf.

Doch droben aus dem dunkeln Himmel schauten
Herunter auf mein Grab die Sternenaugen,
Die süßen Augen! und sie glänzten sieghaft
Und ruhig heiter, aber voller Liebe.

1 Gretchaninov: "Die weit war"

by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
1.
Language: French (Français) 
Je rêvais d'une vaste lande,
Immensité silencieuse couverte de neige blanche
Et je gisais enterré sous cette blanche neige
Et je dormais du sommeil froid et solitaire de la mort.

Pourtant là-haut dans le ciel obscur
Les yeux des étoiles regardaient mon tombeau,
Les yeux chéris ! Et ils brillaient victorieusement,
Avec une calme sérénité, mais emplis d'amour.

[ ... ]

Kein Haus, keine Heimat,
Kein Weib und kein Kind,
So wirbl' ich, ein Strohhalm,
In Wetter und Wind!

Well' auf und Well' nieder,
Bald dort und bald hier;
Welt, fragst du nach mir nicht,
Was frag' ich nach dir?

2. Pas de maison, pas de patrie
Language: French (Français) 
[ ... ]

Pas de maison, pas de patrie,
Pas de femme, pas d'enfant,
Ainsi je tourbillonne comme un fétu de paille
Dans la tempête et le vent !

Secoué par les vagues,
Ici à un moment, là à un autre ;
Monde, si tu ne demandes pas après moi,
Pourquoi je demanderais après toi ?
