French (Français) translations of Lieder, opus 4

by R. de Cuvry

1. Wasserfahrt  [sung text not yet checked]
by R. de Cuvry , "Wasserfahrt", op. 4 (Lieder) no. 2
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich stand gelehnet an den Mast,
Und zählte jede Welle.
[Ade!]1 mein schönes Vaterland!
Mein Schiff, das segelt schnelle!

Ich [kam schön]2 Liebchens Haus vorbei,
Die Fensterscheiben blinken;
Ich [guck']3 mir fast die Augen aus,
Doch [will mir niemand]4 winken.

Ihr Tränen, bleibt mir aus dem Aug',
Daß ich nicht dunkel sehe.
[Mein krankes]5 Herze brich mir nicht
Vor [allzugroßem]6 Wehe.

1. Voyage en bateau
Language: French (Français) 
J'étais debout appuyé au mât,
Et je comptais chaque vague.
Adieu beau pays de mes pères !
Mon bateau, comme tu navigues vite !

Je suis passé devant la maison de ma belle,
Les vitres de la fenêtre scintillent ;
Intensivement je cherche des yeux,
Mais personne ne me fait signe.

Vous, mes larmes, ne me montez pas aux yeux,
Que je mon regard ne soit pas trop sombre.
Et toi, mon cœur malade, ne te brise pas
Devant cette douleur bien trop grande.
