Ich will meine Seele tauchen
In den Kelch der Lilie hinein;

Den sie mir einst gegeben
In wunderbar süßer Stund'.

1. Voglio tuffare la mia anima
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Voglio tuffare la mia anima
nel calice del giglio;
il giglio con dolce suono rievocherà
una canzone dell'amore mio.

La canzone tremerà con un brivido
come il bacio della sua bocca,
che lei mi diede una volta
in un'ora dolcissima e stupenda!

Hinauf [zur]5 Waldeshöh',
Dort löst sich auf in Tränen
Mein übergroßes Weh'.

2. Sento risuonare la canzone
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Sento risuonare la canzone
che un giorno lei cantava,
mi sento lacerare il petto
per il peso selvaggio del dolore.

Mi porta una cupa nostalgia
verso le alture boscose,
là si scioglie in pianto
il mio troppo grande dolore.

3. So hast du ganz und gar vergessen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Alfred Grünfeld (1852 - 1924), "So hast du ganz und gar vergessen", op. 1 (Vier Gedichte) no. 3
Language: German (Deutsch) 
So hast du ganz und gar vergessen,
Daß ich so lang dein Herz besessen,
Dein Herzchen so süß und so falsch und so klein,
Es kann nirgend was süßres [und]1 falscheres sein.

So hast du die Lieb und das Leid vergessen,
Die das Herz mir täten zusammenpressen.
Ich weiß nicht, war Liebe größer als Leid?
Ich weiß nur, sie waren groß alle beid!

4. Und wüßten's die Blumen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Alfred Grünfeld (1852 - 1924), "Und wüßten's die Blumen", op. 1 (Vier Gedichte) no. 4
Language: German (Deutsch) 
[Und]1 wüßten's die Blumen, die kleinen,
Wie tief verwundet mein Herz,
Sie würden mit mir weinen,
Zu heilen meinen Schmerz.

Und wüßten's die Nachtigallen,
Wie ich so traurig und krank,
Sie ließen fröhlich erschallen
Erquickenden Gesang.

Und wüßten sie mein Wehe,
Die [goldnen]2 Sternelein,
Sie kämen aus [ihrer Höhe]3,
Und sprächen Trost mir ein.

[Die alle]4 können's nicht wissen,
Nur [eine]5 kennt meinen Schmerz;
[Sie]6 hat ja selbst zerrissen,
Zerrissen mir das Herz.

4. Se sapessero i fiorellini
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Se sapessero i fiorellini, i piccoli,
come profondo è ferito il mio cuore,
piangerebbero con me,
per risanare il mio dolore.

Se sapessero gli usgnoli,
quanto sono triste e malato,
farebbero risuonare il canto
lieto e consolatore.

Se sapessero il mio tormento 
le stelline d'oro,
verrebbero giù dal loro cielo
e mi direbbero parole di conforto.

Tutti loro non possono saperlo,
Una sola conosce il mio dolore;
lei che mi ha spezzato,
mi ha spezzato il cuore.
