Language: German (Deutsch) 
Morgens steh' ich auf und frage:
Kommt feins Liebchen heut?
Abends sink' ich hin und klage:
Aus blieb sie auch heut.
 
In der Nacht mit meinem Kummer
lieg' ich schlaflos, [wach]1;
träumend, wie im halben Schlummer,
träumend wandle ich bei Tag.

1. La mattina mi sveglio e domando
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
La mattina mi sveglio e domando:
verrà oggi l'amore mio?
La sera vado a letto e mi lamento:
neanche oggi è venuta.

Nella notte col mio tormento
giaccio sveglio, senza poter dormire;
sognando, come in dormiveglia
mi trascino di giorno.

2. Ich stand in dunkeln Träumen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Leon Carolus Bouman (1852 - 1919), "Ich stand in dunkeln Träumen", op. 1 (Drei Lieder) no. 2
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich stand in [dunkeln]1 Träumen
Und [starrte]2 ihr Bildniß an,
Und das geliebte Antlitz
Heimlich zu leben begann.
 
Um ihre Lippen zog sich
Ein Lächeln wunderbar,
Und wie von Wehmuthsthränen
[Erglänzte]3 [ihr]4 Augenpaar.
 
Auch meine Thränen flossen
Mir von [den Wangen]5 herab -- 
Und ach, ich [kann es]6 nicht glauben,
Daß ich Dich verloren hab'!

2. Immagine di lei
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Stavo in oscuri sogni
e mi guardò la sua immagine,
e il viso amato
prese misteriosamente vita.

Sulle sue labbra apparve
un sorriso meraviglioso
e come di lacrime di nostalgia
luccicarono i suoi occhi.

Anche a me le lacrime
scesero giù sulle guance...
- ah, che non posso credere
di averti perduta!

3. Mein Liebchen, wir saßen beisammen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Leon Carolus Bouman (1852 - 1919), "Mein Liebchen, wir saßen beisammen", op. 1 (Drei Lieder) no. 3
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.

3. Amore mio, sedevamo insieme
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Amore mio, sedevamo insieme,
noi due soli nella barca leggera,
Calma era la notte, scivolavamo
trascinati dall'ampia corrente.

L'isola degli spiriti, nella sua bellezza,
si mostrava vaga nel chiarore lunare;
Una musica dolce iniziò risuonare,
nella nebbia che pareva danzare.

E la dolcezza del suono si faceva più forte,
per ogni luogo sembrava ondeggiare;
Ma noi sulla barca passammo oltre,
sconsolati verso l'ampio mare.
